March 04, 2025 Stainless Steel Dreams – Mike’s Time-Traveling Journey with a DeLorean and Beyond
Click here to share your favorite car, car story or any automotive trivia!
Mike’s “DeLorean Dreams” episode is a nostalgic cruise through the 1980s and a heartfelt exploration of how one iconic car can shape a life. As a child of the ’80s, Mike grew up idolizing the Back to the Future DeLorean, never imagining he’d one day own one. He shares the emotional story of tracking down a 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 and the goosebumps moment of seeing those gull-wing doors in his garage.
But the DeLorean is just the centerpiece; Mike’s journey through automotive history includes restoring its finicky PRV engine, sourcing parts from a passionate owner’s club, and even taking it on a cross-country rally where fans flocked to see “the time machine.” Alongside the DeLorean saga, Mike reminisces about the other classics in his collection (like a pair of Dodge Darts affectionately nicknamed “The Twins” and a Buick Special – each with their own chapter of car memories). He also touches on how owning these cars connected him with his community – from winning “Best in Class” at a local car show to mentoring a neighbor’s kid on how to polish stainless steel body panels.
Mike's favorite episode is no surprise, it's our Season 1 Finale with Kat DeLorean - https://pod.link/1733902541/episode/21bc2a128a77f6b4aebc3657124d0d80
Blending pop-culture fun with restoration reality, this episode will delight anyone who’s ever pursued a childhood car dream. Mike’s story is a powerful reminder that our passion for cars can drive us to achieve the impossible and forge lifelong friendships along the way.

Famed Ferrari restoration expert Tom Yang sits down to share truly enchanting car stories that will transport any listener to a golden age of motoring.

He shares touching anecdotes of reuniting families with their long-lost cars and teaching younger enthusiasts the art of restoration.
