The show is of interest to "do it yourself backyard mechanics", race fans, and fans of classic cars, as well an any other automotive interest. Personalities include Micheal Rhodes who is the main host, and James Lee, owner of a local independent repair shop. They are often joined by Peter Kendig who also owns a local shop and who specializes in restoration work on classic cars and troubleshooting difficult electrical problems. Callers questions are often discussed in great detail, and any chance to throw in a comic comment here and there is not passed by, adding to the entertainment value of the show. Local classic auto shows are featured as well as South Texas area auto and motorcycle races.

[edit]

On May 6, 1954, KCCT first signed on. It was a daytimer, owned by the International Radio Company.[4] KCCT was a Spanish-language station through most of its history, aimed at the Mexican-American community in and around Corpus Christi. In the early 1980s, KCCT was given nighttime authorization by the Federal Communications Commission to broadcast at 1000 watts by day and 500 watts at night, using a directional antenna at all times to protect other stations on AM 1150.

On June 2, 2017, KCCT changed its format from Americana and Texas-oriented country music to classic hits, branded as "Retro 104.1."[5]

On January 2, 2024, the "Retro" format moved to KBSO, with KCCT flipping to a classic Tejano music format as "Retro Tejano 104.1".[6]
