The “Builders” Podcast Series Continues With Curt Ukasik at RPM.

If there is a shop in Western PA that has really put this area on the hot rod map, it is RPM.

Just go to RPM’s Website to see the list of awards that Curt and his team have won. Their work is known all across the country and it’s spreading across the border. One of their current projects is for a hot rodder in Toronto!

Curt is an interesting and fun person to talk to. You will hear that in the interview.
