BaT Video Podcast: The Chris Runge Interview and Shop Tour: A Practical Look
Join BaT Podcast host Alex Porter and bespoke car builder Christopher Runge for an extended tour of the Rünge Cars workshop, tucked between the lakes and rolling hills of west central Minnesota. There, Chris and his small team create Porsche-powered, hand-built automobiles using traditional superlight coachbuilding techniques inspired by German and Italian specialty carmakers of the mid-20th century. Runge demonstrates his unique process and tools, which run the gamut from a vintage English wheel and metal stretcher to a cutting-edge CAD system and 3D prototype printing setup.
It was a treat to spend an afternoon with Chris in his inner sanctum, among his projects, and it’s equally fun to hear Alex’s insightful questioning and boundless enthusiasm. We hope you enjoy this special video episode as much as we enjoyed making it!
