Summary

It is the first week of November, Thanksgiving is upon us, and it's time for another great Ask Rick segment! Rick and his father Jim curated an impressive car collection by purchasing what they liked more than what was "in demand," but in this discussion we'll learn that their first desire was to buy the best car possible, not the best one available. There's a difference!

We also have one last interview to present from the Holley MOPARTY event a few weeks ago. Garrett Daniels at RND Fab Works came on to discuss how he created the totally functional; "General Lee Hoop" roll bar. How does one make a functional 2 point roll bar suitable for race belts? Easy....make it a 4-point bar with a removable cross bar as well!

collection. Why not? Well, because when he's shopping, he's not necessarily looking for specific

cars. He's looking for great cars first and foremost. And then maybe specific cars second,
