    I met the coolest old dude today (Alvin) , he is 83 and still runs a garage. I was charged $15.00 for mounting and balancing 4 tires. His place is a greazy old garage with a grease pit, tires stacked everywhere, parts and tools ****tered. Like stepping back 40 years. Not many guys and places like that left. Ill shoot a few photos of his place. I did shoot a few pics of some cars he is parting out. I understand he has a bunch more stacked at his house. Updates to follow.
