In response to the many requests, we receive here at Wisconsin Hot Rod Radio for more of Ian Roussel and Full Custom Garage – we decided to host several of the key figures from the show. 

Brooks worked with Ian Roussel on Monster Nation, where Brooks was a camera man and Ian was the “behind the scenes” fabricator. Together they created a several popular DVD called “Back from the Dead: Hot Rod Documentary”.  Brooks has worked on Jesse James: Blacksmith, How Stuff Works, Vans Cup at Tahoe and more.

If anybody knows what it takes to keep up with Ian – Brooks would know.

Full Custom Garage is TV series dedicated to building custom vehicles. It features Ian Roussel who has been creating some of the coolest rides since Ed “Big Daddy” Roth.
