Easy car care

My dad owned an auto salvage yard while I was growing
up. To me it was a wonderful playground. When I finally
got a driver’s license, I asked my dad about a car. “Son,” he
said, while pointing in the direction of the junkyard, “take
your pick.” I chose a 1971 Dodge Demon. I didn’t know it
then, but the work experience I gained there would shape
my career and guide me for the rest of my life.
After high school, I joined the Air Force and spent 16 years
as an Aerospace Ground Support Technician.
My favorite job was at Sussex Motor and Coach in
Matamoras, PA. I repaired, maintained, and rebuilt classic
and antique vehicles. My 15 minutes of fame was the 1955
Lincoln Indianapolis, a concept car we rebuilt. Google it
and you will see it has been in countless articles and
magazines. Last I heard, it had sold for over $1 ¼ million.
In 2007, after working in a couple of local garages, I
decided to start my own shop. My wife Judee and I have
discussed hiring help, but it always goes back to not being
able to regulate the quality of repairs and being personal
with my customers.
