That was pretty unreal. I swear that I have seen that green Dodge truck with the AAR graphics at the Nats.

For a place that "restores" Mopars: they sure are sloppy with stuff scattered everywhere. Need to bring in some dumpsters
& scrap some of those cars & lots of that metal laying round.

Love how the guy says he is a Mopar nut, then misidentifies the first two cars he sees, then has to ask the other guy what every car is. Lots of stuff sitting outside rotting away. Cars crammed in buildings that haven't seen the light of day this centuary.

Neither of them seemed to recognize a '64 Dodge.

They really look like a one-off. They are pretty cool.

You have.

The silver haired guy is Steve Bean (sp), he used to work with Dave Walden (RIP) aka E.C.S.
https://ecsauto.com/collections/mopar

He helped build the cars that Dave Walden showed at the Nats.
The 4 door Cuda, the Valiant, Dave Challenger and Cuda.

The place where it was filmed is Rich Costello's shop.
It's about a mile from my house as the crow flies.

Many of the cars there belong to "customers".

The 68 Hemi Coronet belongs to a buddy Dave H., he's been waiting for years for progress on the car to be made.
That's the story on many of the cars sitting there. Dave has about 8 cars sitting out there.

Some of the cars there belong to another buddy Tom R., he's the one that ended up with the "Quadruple Black 70 Hemicuda" that came out of Arkansas this year from Danny Hoots.

The guy doing the filming is a Mopar guy.
He's known as Spookhouse Larry, he owns all the local Halloween Haunted House places around St.Louis.

This was in Port Huron on 7/30/22. He is from the Warren area and part of the Twisted Axle Car Club. They love to drive their cars all over the metro Detroit area and outside of it on occasion.

What’s Spookhouse Larry’s motivation for putting out a video? In the video, he comes across as condescending. Are these cars/parts really for sale or is he trying to push Rich to sell? Unless Rich is a young guy, he’ll never finish all those cars.

Who Knows what Larry's motivation for the filming was.

As I said many of the cars aren't even Rich's they belong to other people.

They were there to be inline for restorations, but some have been there 20+ years now.

Rich has had one of Tom's cars for over 30 years that Rich started working on and hasn't finished yet.
He's worked on other cars for Tom and Larry in that time.

Many of the so called parts cars are owned by Tom, along with many of the Six Pack and Hemi cars.

Tom owns 125 acres with 5 lake cabins next to Rich's House/Shop that he mainly bought because he wanted to get rid of a neighbor that was giving Rich problems.
Tom doesn't live there, he lives in St.Louis County.

One of the other neighboring property owners is Mark McKlosky, the lawyer and his wife were charged for waiving guns (AR15) at the protestors in St.Louis.

so how long do you wait on a car before you relize it will never get worked on and take to someone else? 20 years? unreal.

I have had a car in body shop jail since 2010, do you know how much more it would cost to litigate and hope you get your car back in whatever condition it was left in the last time it was worked on? How about the parts, will they all be there and can you prove it? Once they are in body shop jail you are the one with the trust and hope you get it out. I even have a signed contract... frown


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
