Default Guy from Chicago

Hello, I'm John and I've lived in Chicago for over 20 years.

Over the last twenty years I've owned a huge variety of cars, that include a bunch of 1st and 2nd gen Camaros, and also Novas, GTO's and Chevelles.

A few years ago I bought one of my dream cars, a chopped 1951 Mercury.

I think it looks a little better now:

Before:


After:

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

I see you are on Western Ave. right by Crabby Kim's. I grew up there and still have friends there with cars. Maybe you know Jay with the yellow American Graffitti Ford. Cool car you have there.

I've never been in Crabby Kims but I think that's the bar behind me in the pic? I should try it.

I don't know Jay but I've seen his AG tribute car a few times. I'd like to take some pics of the cars together at some point once I do the grille.

My next purchase will run high 11's, be pretty new, and take corners. And have two booster seats for my boys, most likely a 2011 Camaro SS.

PM me when you are ready and I will get a hold of him. Maybe we'll bump into each other at a local cruise night.
