here in Kingman, every third saturday of the month from april to october, we have a free car show, it starts at about 3 pm. and finishes about 7.30 pm.

it is well supported in the area by local enthusiasts.

if you go to "mohavetvnews.com" and choose monday 20th. april, the last news item is about the above and what do you know, i'm being interviewed.

Awesome. I think the thing that made me smile the most was your comment "I'm on my third set of tires". Ain't no garage queen! :cheers:

Nice interview, John.

Someone here on Locost USA characterized your location as "in the sticks." I don't know. A TV station within 65 miles sounds downright civilized. :wink:

Cheers,

John,

I'll second the 'nice interview' statement. It was also good to get to see and hear a member of the forum, other than through the written word!

Hey, Mr. H!
Great interview! The car looked great, and I was really happy with that "about 10,000 miles a year, I'm on my third set of tires" comment. Of all the folks interviewed, yours was the most exotic car AND the one that actually gets driven! Good on ya!
:cheers:
JDK

Nice to see an honest interview without vehicle hype or postering, well done. :cheers:

Here's a link to the segment...

...and John is on at 20:53, for those of you who hate searching through videos.

His car looks good in its natural habitat.
