Advertise on podcast: Rollin in my 5.0 - Foxbody Talk with KASL Customs and The Infamous Project

It's 8:30PM Sunday October 25th 2026 and we just pulled in from the Trip home from Foxtoberfest. I thought it would be fun to sit down with my Mom and my Daughter and get their thoughts on their first Foxtoberfest. We get the full debrief from how the 1979 Ghia performed, to their thoughts on the show itself, and everything in-between.

From a Basement to a Nationwide Leader, Today’s Trucks & a Mustang Ghia Comeback! In this episode, we sit down with Matt Lasszaic of NPD (National Parts Depot) and Bill Butler of Ford Performance for a conversation packed with automotive history, industry insights, truck talk, and classic Mustang passion! We kick things off by looking back at the humble beginnings of NPDLink.com, starting out in a basement and growing into a nationwide industry leader in the automotive restoration parts business. Matt shares the story behind that incredible journey, while Bill brings his Ford Performance perspective to the conversation. Next, we shift gears to today's pickup trucks! If we had to put our money down on one truck to drive home, which one would we choose? We break down the options, discuss what matters most, and explain which truck we'd buy and why. Then, we get into a special Mustang project with Gary of KASL Customs: the restoration of a 1979 Ford Mustang Ghia powered by the original-style 3.3L (200 cubic-inch) inline-six. The mission? Get this classic Mustang back on the road so Gary's daughter and Mom can drive it to Foxtoberfest 2026 in Charlotte, North Carolina! We talk about the car, the restoration, and what it takes to bring a unique piece of Mustang history back to life for the next generation. From a basement startup to a nationwide automotive powerhouse, from modern pickup trucks to a family-focused classic Mustang restoration, this episode has something for every Ford fan and car enthusiast. 🎙️ Tune in, turn it up, and join the conversation!

🚨 WOULD YOU MODIFY A PERFECT 1993 SVT COBRA? 🚨Only a handful of pristine 1993 Ford Mustang SVT Cobras remain like this—untouched, original, and completely unmolested by the aftermarket.But now we have a problem…🔥 Do we preserve this collector’s dream… or turn it into a street monster?This immaculate Vibrant Red Foxbody Cobra still wears its original parts, factory welds, tags, and low-mileage condition. It’s a genuine time capsule—and with Foxbody values climbing in the 2026 collector market, one irreversible modification could have a serious impact on its future value.But there’s another side to the argument…The factory 5.0L V8 made just 235 horsepower. By modern standards, that’s enough to get embarrassed by some modern family SUVs minivans. So is keeping it 100% stock really the best way to experience this legendary machine?In this episode, we present both side of the argument:🔧 THE MECHANIC: Preserve the Cobra exactly as Ford built it.🏁 THE OWNER: Make it faster, sharper, and drive the heck out of it.💰 THE BIG QUESTION: Can you have modern performance without destroying the car’s originality?We’ll examine high-end reversible upgrades, modern suspension and potential performance modifications—including stealthy upgrades that could transform the driving experience without permanently devaluing the car.Then comes the moment everything changes…Will the first wrench finally turn—or will this Cobra remain completely untouched?A Huge thank you to Matt - the owner of this stunning 1993 SVT Foxbody Mustang Cobra for sharing his cars story and thoughts/theories surround modifying this incredible car!

Meet Josh — a cancer survivor, garage nut, tinkerer, and guy who believes there’s always something worth fixing, restoring, or bringing back to life. After surviving cancer, Josh learned to look at life a little differently. Every challenge became an opportunity, every setback a lesson, and every day another reason to make memories and enjoy the ride. Now, he’s bringing that outlook to the garage, the road, the lake, and everywhere in between. Alongside his family, Josh dives into all kinds of adventures — from revving up Sea-Doos and restoring classics like a ’91 Ford Mustang GT to attending car shows, hitting the races, spending days at the lake, and tackling whatever project rolls into the garage next. But this podcast isn’t just about cars, tools, and wrenching. It’s about family, friendship, perseverance, laughter, and making the most out of life. With plenty of grit, gumption, and heart, Josh and his family invite listeners along for the projects, the adventures, the unexpected challenges, and the memories made along the way. It’s not just about what gets built or restored — it’s about the people, stories, and moments that make the journey worth remembering.

From dial-up internet and servers sitting in a spare room to millions of page views, press credentials at the Detroit Auto Show, and special access press deals with Ford Motor Company— this is the story of the early days of online automotive media. In this episode, we sit down with the founder of Corral.net and MustangWorks.com to hear how it all began in the mid-1990s, when the internet was still in its infancy. We talk about what it was like to physically host and maintain servers from home while trying to keep up with millions of visits every month, the challenges of monetizing an automotive website before digital advertising was fully established, getting invited to major automotive events, working directly with Ford, and building an online Mustang community from the ground up. It's a behind-the-scenes look at the wild early days of the internet—and how a passion for Mustangs helped create something that was far ahead of its time.
