Randy Borcherding drops a surprise that instantly changes the vibe: he’s moved Painthouse out of Houston and into the mountains of Utah. We talk through the why behind the decision, the reality of relocating a hands-on custom car business, and what it feels like to start a new chapter at 60. Randy also shares how the move becomes official only recently, why he keeps things quiet until the dust settles, and what he actually gains day to day with less humidity, friendlier traffic, and a new pace of life.

Then we get into the shop details gearheads care about. Randy is now partnering with an established operation called Altered Customs in the Salt Lake area, working in a larger warehouse-style space with full fabrication, body, paint, mechanical, and electrical work under one roof. He explains how two separate booths help keep dirty bodywork away from clean paint, and he walks us through what’s currently on deck, from a clean ’57 Bel Air to big ongoing projects that came up from Texas. The highlight for purists is the 1966 Jaguar XKE convertible: original inline-six, manual gearbox, and a plan focused on preserving what makes the car special instead of turning it into a resto-mod.

We also hit our regular segments with quick, useful takeaways: a racing calendar check-in across NHRA, NASCAR, and IndyCar, plus This Week In Auto History with milestones like the electric starter, Earth Day’s impact on emissions and catalytic converters, Volvo’s safety legacy, and the first modern car radio. In the news, we react to a Bugatti dealership lawsuit tied to warranty reimbursement rates and laugh at how the industry follows the money as Mopar rolls out pet-focused accessories for drivers who travel with four-legged passengers.
