Episode 17 - Phil and Jeremy Gerber from the Roadster Shop

Phil and Jeremy Gerber are the owners of the Roadster Shop which is known for its high-end, custom built Muscle Cars and Trucks. Their company also manufactures new, state of the art, high-performance chassis that they use in all of their builds and sell to the best custom builders in the world. The Gerbers, along with their Director of Operations, Josh Henning, are also hosts of the Oil and Whiskey podcast where they talk about whiskey and the automotive aftermarket.

The Gerbers grew up boating with their father Neal, a successful entrepreneur who helped them start the Roadster Shop over 25 years ago. Neal passed away in 2019 after a heroic six year battle with cancer, but not before his sons surprised him with a gift of a completely restored and customized 1971 27 ft. Magnum Sport. The boys grew up listening to their father's many stories about his revered Magnum Maltese that he had owned when he was younger. In our episode, the Gerbers talk extensively about their journey to build the boat for their father. We also discuss their hot rod business, their new Four-wheel drive, turn-key Chevy truck rollers, and their exclusive automotive distribution deal with Mercury Racing.
