The newest episode of the SEMA Battle of the Builders web series, "Ready for Battle with AJ," is now available on YouTube. Join Adrienne “AJ” Janic, co-host of “Overhaulin’” and “SEMA Battle of the Builders,” as she chats with top contenders from the SEMA Battle of the Builders competition. Get an exclusive look into the lives of these builders and you might even get a sneak peek what they have in store for the 2020 SEMA Show.

Janic joins Phil and Jeremy Gerber of The Roadster Shop in Mundelein, Illinois. The Roadster Shop has been fabricating chassis and turning out custom, SEMA-quality builds for the past 25 years. From prototyping to manufacturing to paint, The Roadster Shop is a one-stop-shop for custom car builds.

The Gerber brothers give AJ a behind-the-scenes look at their 30,000-sq.-ft. facility, including a preview of the ’77 Chevy C10 and some other builds they are working on for the 2020 SEMA Show.

Last year, The Roadster Shop posted two vehicles in the SEMA Battle of the Builders Top 40—a ’65 Pontiac Catalina 2+2 and a ’69 Ford Bronco.
