Get ready to rev up your engines as we take you on a car journey like no other. We're going all in at the 63rd annual O'Reilly Auto Parts Autorama in Houston, Texas, where we chat with Jim Tilley, owner of the classic 1965 Coronet 500, better known as the Mr. Norm car. He gives us a guided tour of Mr. Norm's high-performance history, and how used car sales escalated into a dynamic dealership experience. It is a 'don't miss' story of past automotive glory.
It is an engaging dialogue with a passionate retired car enthusiast hailing from Sulphur, Louisiana. Ever heard of a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500, a 1967 Barracuda or a 1968 GTS Dart? Our guest certainly has and he's got a collection to prove it. He shares his love for Mopar cars, his automotive journey, and the intricate details that make these vintage cars so special. Plus, we drop a hint about the anticipated appearance of Larry Way, the host of Autorama, in our next episode.
Lastly, we shift gears to explore the colorful world of shade tree mechanics. Join us as we get under the hood with Jim, owner of a spectacular turquoise car, as he divulges about the variety of car colors and options available in the 60s. It's not all about the aesthetics though, we also get into the business side of things, discussing trust, pricing, and even proper waste disposal. So, buckle up, because this episode is an exhilarating ride through car history, industry insights, and the world of shade tree mechanics.
