Author: ROADSTERSHOP March 30, 2026 Duration: 2:37:32

This week on Oil & Whiskey, we sit down with Buddy Hale and the crew from Type One Restorations. And it gets WILD. Strap in 😂From starting in a garage doing paint work for material costs to building some of the most talked-about cars in the industry, Buddy shares the path, the risk of walking away from steady work, and what it really takes to bet on yourself.We get into the builds that put Type One on the map, including the cars that had everyone talking at major shows, and the level of detail and execution that’s helping them make serious noise in the industry.There’s also a real conversation around what it takes to compete at the highest level. The right team, the right customers, and the kind of mindset where nothing gets skipped if you’re trying to win.If you’re into custom builds, shop stories, and what it actually takes to grow in this industry, this is a good one.


There’s a certain alchemy that happens when raw mechanical passion meets the kind of relaxed, behind-the-scenes conversation usually reserved for a garage late at night. That’s the atmosphere you’ll find on Oil and Whiskey with Roadster Shop. Hosted by Jeremy Gerber, Phil Gerber, and Josh Henning, this podcast pulls back the curtain on the world of high-end custom muscle cars and chassis building straight from the experts who do it every day. You’re not just getting a polished show; you’re getting a seat at the bench in their shop. Episodes dive into the nitty-gritty details of current builds, break down emerging technology and techniques, and swap stories from the road and major events. It’s a mix of practical tips, industry news, and the unfiltered insights that come from a team with decades of collective experience. Whether you’re deep into a project of your own or just appreciate the craft, this podcast connects the dots between hard work and the camaraderie that fuels it. Tune in for genuine shop talk that feels like hanging out with the crew.
