Myspace Backgrounds My name is Willy and I’m from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I’m a former dishwasher, broom maker, deli clerk, floorwalker, mall cop, bouncer, bodyguard, car salesman, nightclub manager and prison guard.Nowadays I’m a newspaper columnist, editor, photographer, mechanic, songwriter and the singer in a Winnipeg based band called The Gearheads.I’m the son of a greaser, and according to my neighbor, I’m also a junk collector. I live on a 10-acre property about a half hour out of Winnipeg. My shop, Willy’s Garage, is located in my back yard and I own over 40 vehicles. I have owned over 200 cars in my life.Despite my menacing appearance, I’m the most fun loving guy in the Universe. I always have a smile on my face and you will rarely hear me say anything bad about anyone. (unless they really deserve it)Some say I lead a charmed life. I sure as heck wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth, but I gotta admit, making a living playing with cars and singing in a band is pretty much my dream come true.The main focus of this MYSpace is to post pictures, if you want to read some of my articles simply Google Willy’s Garage Winnipeg and you’ll find me.I can be reached via e-mail at [email protected] and would love to hear from you.Keep it real and build it steel………….Willy
