UTG With The Junkyard King Steve Magnante



Close Calls and carnage special!
Anytime we get together with the legendary Steve Mags it’s a great time.
This time around, our conversation drifted from magazines, to model cars, to drag racing history, to mechanical chaos and a healthy dose of crashing, burning, exploding engines, close calls and Youtubing in general.

  1. Like Tony said, I wake up every day and see what Steve is up to before I get on with my day. The best part of wakin' up is junkyard in my cup.

    I will say, I wish the year and car were maybe in parentheses in the title of Steve's stuff. Sometimes it's hard to find a video I've previously watched without that search optimization.

  2. This video/podcast is fantastic and should go viral amongst Mopar enthusiasts..2 expert historians..
    Started street racing Mopar in the late 60s and still lovin' Mopar with my 14 RT moded blacktop charger😊

  3. Tony, this show is a perfect example of why you need tech peeps. Steve's voice is clear and understandable. yours is echoing and not articulate. couldn't watch past 5 minutes.

  4. You talked about over producing in television. Once shot a segment cutting down a tree, something I've done a million times. Just the simple act of taking the saw out of the pickup took like 30 takes, then we did it all again for a "hand shot". Walking to the tree was the same painstaking process. We reshot the chainsaw starting several times. Actually dropping the tree only took one take thankfully, because I only had the one dead tree.

  5. I'm certainly in the "start my day with Steve" habit. I love the short junkyard videos but I'd love to see a longer REMCharger build. I'm not much of a MOPAR guy but I am always in for a sleeper, especially when they're something unique.
