Bonneville Race Team: Rod Riders SCTA
My shop Sakowski Motors. Surfing 3 times a week at the Venice Breakwater, El Porto, The Cove, and Sunset; Seiou Kai Karate and boxing, building hot rods and motorcycles at my shop, looking for cool cars and bikes to buy.
Riding motorcycles, cruising, trips in hot rods. Going for a sail on someone else's boat. I want to sail to Hawaii this year and get an anchor tattooed on my forearm when I get there. ******************************************March 9, 2006 - I had a whale surface about 20 feet from me at El Porto this morning while surfing. There were also about 50 dophins almost within reach. The whale was really a life changing / moving event. Very overwhelming. One of the coolest things I have experienced.
Summer 2006: Surfed over school of leopard sharks. Saw a 15 foot at least great white at Sunset in Malibu. Kept surfing both times. The leopard sharks are not usually aggressive, unless you fall on them maybee...
December 22, 2005 - Sakowski Motors was on ESPN2 show "The Truck Stop".
RECENT FUN
10/17/05 -We recently took our 1973 Winnebago from LA to Monterey. I didn't get eaten by any Great Whites surfing at Asylimar (there haven't been any fatal attacks there in some years a local assured me) or in San Simeon (just around the point from washed up sea lion carcasses), though a mountain lion did come into the campsite in San Simeon and the people in tents had to get into their cars for a while. Had to replace the starter in Big Sur. She has a warmed over 440 big block, so I can pass suprised cars going up the mountains.
I AM ONLY ADDING "FRIENDS" WHO REPRESENT WHAT SAKOWSKI MOTORS IS ALL ABOUT, I AM TRYING TO KEEP IT UNDER 300, ANY ONE IS VERY WELCOME TO JOIN THE "SAKOWSKI MOTORS HOT ROD CLUB" IN MY GROUPS SECTION if you dig what we are all about. Old friends, anyone interested in what Sakowski Motors does. * If you are rude, crude, vulgar, or offensive (without good cause) you will not be added. There is too much of that in this world already to try to pass it off as cool. Also strippers and stripper pics, pics of people flicking the bird, are all too boring and lame to accept.

I was lucky to have known him. An end of an era.

Anyone fit the job description, or know of anyone solid?Classic Car, Hot Rod Shop, and Dealership looking for the right personFIRST VISIT WWW.SAKOWSKIMOTORS.COMReply through myspaceEMPLOYMENT: Sakowski Motors is always looking for the right person to join the team. Part Time or Full Time. Apprentice: clean shop, cars, learn, take pictures of cars and put them online, get dirty and sweat a lot, etc..., Fabricator, Mechanic, detailer, etc... You must have a list on people a mile long that will vouch for your character and skills. That's the tough part.I am looking for all different types of people for different positions but right now a could really use someone to help me: detail cars for sale, list them on the internet for sale, help with the paperwork, and help look for cars online and in person I am interested in buying. You really don't need professional experience for this job, just a love of classics and a decent knowledge of cars. A great job for a classic car enthusiast that like getting dirty and hands on as well as working on the computer. You must be enjoyable to be around.In the shop we build, repair and customize classic, hot rods, and customs. We always have small and large projects going. We also do traditional rods.VISIT WWW.SAKOWSKIMOTORS.COM First to get an idea of what we do, and what kind of shop we are. You must be a nice positive person who has many many people we can talk to, so we can verify your skills, background, and character. No drug use or alcohol problems. If you are a vulgar talking / vulgar person, you won't be happy here. This is a SMALL FAMILY BUSINESS.I am really open to all types of skill levels. I would really rather have a hobbyist that we can train to do things the right way, then a pro that knows it all and messes the jobs up doing things his way. To tell the truth, I would hire almost any decent, honest, hardworking person that was willing to pay their dues. You must have left your old jobs on good terms, and you can't be crazy.We are a very positive fun shop. We love coming to the shop, and we would still come even if we won the lottery, we would just take longer vacations. We love what we do, build, and learn. This is not just a job, but a way of life for us. It would help if you surf regularly.**Do not stop by without an appointment.Thanks for your interest

Don't let your kids watch it! Make them entertain themselves. It makes them and us stupid. Me especially.
I read too many shop manuals
The good decent people out there that are considerate of others and not self important.
