How many grown men does it take to install one hood on a Willys pickup?
Huh-oh, guys and gals. Look at our newest entry. Gary Hagar has a workbench and garage that we all dream about. Anybody for pool?
Listener Roger Potter sent his shop picture. I don’t see any big issue here. We have a refrigerator, cooler and at least three chairs — What’s the problem? I think I even see his Mustang buried in the back.
Good ole Rick Steiner’s shop. And he did NOT clean it up for a picture. It’s like this all the time.
After and before, a never-get-done work area of listener Dick Wendel. Appears to still be room to walk.
This is our Australian correspondent, Dan Steiner’s, work area. He says it’s cluttered. Looks good to me. Dan is a master wood workers.
Two anonymous listeners who think that their wives don’t already know. Definitely room for improvement.

So many cars, so little time.
In my neverending quest for organization and cleanliness in the Never Done Garage, this is my new nut and bolt shelf. Vintage metal cans full of nuts, bolts and washers. How more organized can you get?

Jack’s Waldo the Wonder Willy
Jack the Car Guy lives in Yellville and has loved cars and all things mechanical since childhood. He purchased his first car, a 1930 Model A sedan, when he was 12 years old, with his lawn mowing money. He has never stopped collecting, now owning 11 cars, 6 tractors, several stationery engines and projects too many to ever finish. He has worked in all phases of the automotive industry, from sales to repair, and most recently worked for Carroll Shelby Enterprises, servicing Goodyear Racing Tires to the NASCAR circuit. Jack is currently Arkansas State Representative for District 99. Jack says he never met a car he didn’t like – he just likes some better than others.
The show is for the gearheads in our listening area to be able to find out where events are happening, ask a question or two and perhaps learn something new each week.
