The Hog Ring - Listen to Mikey Brown of Paper to Pavement on NC Shop Talk

Tune in to the latest episode of NC Shop Talk to hear Mikey Brown of Paper to Pavement, which is building life-size Hot Wheels Cars!

NC Shop Talk is the industry’s first podcast. It’s hosted by Mal Maher of NC Carpet Binding & Equipment.

On the podcast, Mikey talks about how he went from Mikey’s Custom Upholstery to Paper to Pavement, why he enjoys building nostalgic drag cars, his design process, how he adapts to the styles of other builders, and more.

Hot Wheels Here He Comes

Hot Wheels are one of the most loved toy cars in the world — that’s no exaggeration! The design and build of the cars are just simply spectacular! It takes superb craftsmanship to build a life-size Hot Wheels. And today’s guest has exactly what it takes to make one. Mikey Brown is an inspired builder of nostalgic drag cars and other weird gems based out of Deputy, Indiana. His unique style pairs with unbelievable talent to bring his ideas from paper to pavement.
