Colton (aka Train) and Steve (aka Woodchuck) are two of the four hosts of the \u201cB Squad Hotrod\u201d Podcast on to discuss how they have learned and continue to learn to work on their hotrod projects, cars and other related projects, like building a huge garage from scratch.\xa0 We also get into some of the current and upcoming projects and goals for the coming few months.\xa0 A great podcast hosted by two sets of brothers, in 4 states, and three time zones, they work together towards finishing the project and learning a ton along the way.\xa0 Since they are B Squad, they came on our podcast, because A Squad would be a guest on a big time TV show.

Ben joins us on our Dominating With Dawson segment to talk about how to buy a car for a project or to become a race car.\xa0 It is the first of a many part discussion and we will be having at least one returning guest to go over this area more fully in the future.\xa0 Usually, it I said that you make your money when you buy a stock, or a house, or a car, but in our case it is more like you are only starting to lose your money once you buy the car, lol.

As you would expect, we try to bring them over to the dark side and build a car for a race.\xa0 We will see how successful we are.\xa0 We offered to help and race with them.\xa0 That may not have increased the likelihood of their racing, lol.\xa0

Please send in your projects so we can share with the B Squad to help show them what we are doing and drag them into racing.

We hope you enjoy this episode!

Best regards,

Vicki, Jennifer, Alan, and Bill

Highlights from this episode include:

1)\xa0 What are the projects of B Squad and some of their background and learnings along the way.\xa0 With their guidance, we may work our way up to the B squad at some point.

2)\xa0 The logistics of being located in 4 states and 3 different time zones between the four hosts and their individual projects.

3)\xa0 Everyone is jealous of Woodchuck\u2019s projects:\xa0 huge garage with a lift, a Humvee, 1967 fastback Mustang for the family CFO.\xa0 Progress continues despite working full time in the public health arena of Wyoming.\xa0\xa0

4)\xa0 Train\u2019s projects are equally distracted by his (over) full time firefighting/paramedic and when time allows him to work on his 1941-46 Chevy Pickup with an S10 frame swap and full engine swap resto mod.\xa0

5)\xa0 The way that B Squad works out the mechanics of working together with each other remotely.\xa0 It involves a lot of calls, photos, video calls, and infrequent in person trips when possible.

6)\xa0 It seems that all of their interests can be traced back to one of their father\u2019s Corvette.

7)\xa0 Train being in south Texas battles the heat most of the year and Woodchuck in Wyoming battles the cold winters.

8)\xa0 Suggested first projects to begin learning to work on your own car or project and what to grow into eventually and then where you may want to bring in some professional help.

9)\xa0 Why you may not want to let Train work on your electrical issue, especially if it is perhaps a 200 dollar 1974 Impala.\xa0 Take home:\xa0 shot gun shells are not functional fuse replacements.

10)\xa0 Vicki somehow make an analogy between learning to work on a car and learning a new video game that actually works pretty well even though it initially sounded a bit weird.\xa0 If only there was a cheat code with the joystick.

11)\xa0 The El Jeffe tire story comes back to life to help Train feel a bit better about his Impala.

12)\xa0 Ever wonder how Woodchuck got his nick name, its covered here.\xa0 And we finally get to ask the question that has pondered the world forever.

13)\xa0 Some discussion on how to deal with your tool storage when you need portability and mobility to work outside the home garage.\xa0 Also, a discussion of several alternatives for how to layout a home garage.

14)\xa0 Train is not a big fan on body work.\xa0 He would probably be very open to help if you happen to enjoy it.\xa0

15)\xa0 Train is introduced to cars-parts.com.\xa0 We are sure it will help, especially with some of the later model car projects.\xa0\xa0 B Squad was the source where we learned of the project Farm YouTube channel which has been helpful.\xa0 \xa0\xa0

16)\xa0 Woodchuck makes a great suggestion of trying to find a mentor to learn from/with.\xa0

17)\xa0 If you notice, there seems to be a truck them with most of Train\u2019s answers and interests.\xa0 Perhaps we could get him into our race truck one day.
