**************************
By day, I run the parts department for a fleet of 18 wheelers and straight trucks.
Once I get home I spend the rest of my waking hours in my garage working on cars.
I specialize in the repair of Pontiac Fieros, but some of the more unique cars I’ve worked on in the last 6 months are
1953 Porsche 356 pre-A
1955 Austen Healey 100-4
1952 (maybe 1953) MG TD
1969 Chevy SS Nova with 12,xxx miles.
1972 Porsche 911
I spend almost every evening in my garage, unless I have to fix something around the house.
I live somewhat as a recluse, but really I’d rather spend my time with a car than another human anyway.
People are so fickle, I know what to expect from a machine.
Music is a friend you can always count on
