[@saymyname5378]

This is much better than any TV car show you dont skip the details cut two commercial come back with it all done it was TV shows about selling parts and never show you the details and how to install them causes of cold air intake that's so hard to figure out but if it's any real car work like setting up a rear end rebuilding will skip the details how to shim backlash pattern

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

Thanks! We try to show as much as possible even though we don't know it all!

[@davidjessee7701]

Trying to figure out what wheels are on his custom van. Hubs likes them and wants to get a set. If anyone finds out please lmk.

I believe they are custom billet Bonneville G made by Billet Specialties. Here's a link to the wheels on AZ Pro Performance's website. These guys can help you get good pricing and help you through the ordering process. azproperformance.com/products/billet-specialties-bonneville-g

[@charliemclaughlin1042]

Lol it took him like 4 days to make a couple so funny

[@jamieround2072]

how did cato get his foot in the door starting.... & was he doing his own rides or some else's...... & how long has it took roughly to get where he is now....... & why is he not in his very own shop & land now.............or is there some sort of real benifit for him not being in his own shop now still....???????????????????????????????????????????

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

All questions to be answered another time haha

[@404StitchKing]

Cato got his foot on the door because of set standards in quality. We don't work on our own cars, (unfortunately! Lol..because we make everyone else's car look beautiful.) He's been doing upholstery for 8 years and he does have his very own shop in Tucker, Georgia.....did I miss anything?? Lol..

[@allbuick11]

Great work but sucks he's not with marton Bros anymore.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

We'll keep him safe and warm over here on the East Coast. :)

[@joevald3]

I always like Cato , I thought he did real good work . I watched Joe show since Cato an Shorty are gone .Joe had a real good show . But he shouldn't let these people go if you can help it ..

[@bearsrodshop7067]

Reminds me of our ole shop back in Ohio when we had a large customer base. After moving back to TX in '08, now scaled back so we can finish up some of our own project. Nice shop and quality workmanship. Visit us 2 FB Bears Rod Shop & here on YT.
