Stopped by his shop in the 90s. Gave me a complete your. Great guy. Great product.

[@tommyhitt9071]

Remember when you worked for Rodney Combs at WRC back in 85 That’s when I worked for George Moreland in Waldorf Maryland.Then in 90-91 I built my own street stock G body at his shop. Winning the championship that year. Remember going to Winchester and Potomac with George until I started racing myself.

Cool video! I pass there every time I go to my grandma's about 3 miles down the road. Wanted to stop for the last 25 years and just never have. Appreciate the tour and awesome to see Bshep turning wrenches!

It's funny to see how fast everyone starts working when the boss is around.

Couldn't help but notice no one using safety glasses while cutting, drilling or even welding....smh.

Are you their Parents and/or Guardian and/or Supervisor? I thought so.

[@goodguystu]

Couldn't they find someone who could conduct a better interview? Maybe this was his very first ever interview.

[@theautoexpomagazine3836]

Well, we do our best.... but we publish a printed magazine... video makin' is just a hobby for us... we thought what Mark was doing there was really cool and maybe some folks who read our magazine would find it cool too!

[@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113]

Maybe, Mr. Richards is a busy man and is not all that fond of being on Camera and/or he kept trying to Monkey with the Video Equipment, thus, making it difficult to conduct a proper Interview.

[@jonoboi1905]

Brandon Shepherd is good! But not Jonathan Devonport good 👀

[@garyraper9278]

I agree with that statement! Can I get an A-MEN!!

[@garyraper9278]

I agree

[@wooliebooger1629]

Or brandon overton good

[@forwarddrive4066]

Didn't hear a word Mark said. These Buildings look cluttered with minimal room to walk through. Rayburn & Moyer have much cleaner more organized work shops than this.

[@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113]

I only "liked" your comment due to your last Sentence. Shop clutter and Audio difficulties are not my forte. I, already, fell down, anyway. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!!
