The Smoking Tire

Matt Farah got a scary estimate for his Countach project; a new smog  law in CA might be a good thing;  an oil test comes back positive; Zack Klapman learns how to adjust something; and we answer Patreon questions including: How much stereo is too much? Which car will hipsters gentrify next? ZR1 or used McLaren ? Are new gears worth it? The right sports car for a flatter landscape is... Will "blob" cars ever return? Does Aston Martin need a G-Wagen? Are my tires really too old? Can you DIY a Singer-style restomod? How do I find a trustworthy car shipper? And more!
