I am disabled now, But I did own Reds Paint and Body Shop from 1984 thru 1992 where I had to give it all up. that was in Andersonville TN. It was just an small shop, but in that 12 years, My shop put out about over 1000 cars restored, and Painted.
I miss working on the street Rods and Old cars, now I just like looking at them.
I am a Veteran of the Navy, 1971-1975, I was on the USS 52 Arcturus from 1971 -1972 /then to Dam Neck Naval training Base, at the Motor Pool in VB, Va, where I was an Sea-Bee Construction Mech. up to 1975. from 1975 to 1990 I stay in the inactive Reserves. I stay in the Naval Reserves, where they called me back in for Desert Storm, in 1990, until 1992 were my lungs gave out on me. Where it Disabled me.
The Navy said it was from Painting cars at my Business?
Well I'm still here and Kicking.
My best Friend in Michigan is in charge of the Kaiser Car Club.
I cant afford a old car anymore, but thats life.
