The Jeep Forward Control, built from 1956 to 1965, is one of the most unusual Jeeps ever built. True to its name, it featured a cab-over design atop a strong frame, making it perfectly adaptable for use as everything from dump trucks to box vans.
Who would not want to be the coolest Jeep owner? That baby is weird and cool all at once.
Just a man who works at a Chrysler dealer and has done so for over 20 years. Yes I love it.
We work on many makes.

Hey if you need a part!
I took a large return order ($24k) in and Wow!
I have just about every belt, power steering line, and or air filter in the MOPAR WORLD!
You need a ball joint? I might have you covered.
I think the whole spark plugs thing is covered too.

Now I get the fun of tracking down a part on a Mini Cooper.
Fuel rail sensor only comes with the rail and I have to get it from Rochester NY....
So it is going to be fun. Call, get total shipped, and have Corp pay for it.
Checked in 20 thousand plus parts today.
I think it was lucky the trailer didn't break. I started working on it a little after 7am. I was done about noon. No I have to find a place to put it all. Now that is going to be fun.

Found a great way to fix a crashed truck.
The Body-shop needed at least the axle house. I looked up the house and it wasn't really in any depo. So I looked at the whole set up (68334751ae) and told the owner this was available and looked easier to deal with. Heck it was all there. Brakes , shafts, calipers, and all. Just bolt it in, fill it, and bleed the brakes. Done. Big problem.... It took four of us to lift it. It was heavy! But it is gone.. Should be a win win.

We go past the limit we have to to get the parts.
On Saturday I found we needed a air bag for a Ram Truck in the back of it. I ran the numbers and found out there were none to be ordered. There is a shortage. So this mourning I called dealers (many) and now we have one coming in. It is just how we swing. We try not to leave the owner holding the bag on a big ticket and we try to make the owner of the truck happy. It's a balancing act. But in this one all will win.
You running a garage out there and need parts?
I Have so many parts OEM for the Dodges, Rams, and Chrysler. I also have Magneti Marelli available. Starters, brakes, and much more for just about any make.
You need oil that no one has? Call me.
Hey if you are just a guy buying a Jeep....call. We have your back.

98 miles!
http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/classic-cars/this-highly-collectible-1978-corvette-pace-car-has-only-99-miles/ar-BBUJs4v?ocid=ientp
The Chevrolet Corvette remains a staple of homebred automotive dominance. As a Pace Car for the Indianapolis 500, it's stepped into the respected position more times than any other model – serving on no-less than 15 occasions. This particular example represents the Corvette's inaugural designation as an Indy Pace Car, sporting a paltry 99 recorded miles on the odometer. The best part? It's now for sale and could be yours....
It has only 98 miles on it!

This was last Winter here at the shop.....
We have came a long ways from this video. I really need to do a new one....The place is all back together.
We work on just about anything here.
I have never seen one of the above in the shop. But many other cars and trucks have been in. We do the best to make life here good. We have many options on parts. Our techs have been there and done it.
Here is some video proof.
The Bugatti ....expensive and well worth it anyway.

In celebration of its legendary grand tourers, 110-year anniversary, and reputation for excess, Bugatti built the one-off La Voiture Noir, a $12.5 million, 1,500hp super-coupe.
Who doesn't remember owning one as a Hot Wheels Toy or a Match Box? If I had the cash.....Yes sir.

The new Ford Ranger is nice.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/autos-trucks/all-new-2019-ford-ranger-first-drive-review/ar-BBUGmr1?ocid=ientp
The Ranger is a lifestyle choice, much like a Jeep Wrangler, whose image and off-road capabilities draw in tons of buyers. We get that, but we will be interested to see how the truck is to live with. The ride and handling, combined with a compromised rear seat, may limit the appeal for families.
I have to agree this truck is a choice much like buying a Jeep Wrangler. It fits your life or it doesn't. I like the style.

Today is a good day to get your car looked at after the beating it took.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/ownership/slingshot-effect-what-happens-when-a-car-hits-a-pothole/ar-BBUIsml?ocid=ientp
Questions....If my car hits all the damaged streets all Winter what is the down side?
Answer: It’s kind of a slingshot effect, where there’s a spring that’s the suspension that’s compressed and basically the wheel and tire are propelled into the pothole. There’s an impact and that impact is damaging to the vehicle systems.
Stop in and get someone to look at the frame, shocks, springs, and the struts before you need tires or more.

Last Spring we delevered more than a hundered trucks for Dodge.
It was under some program for a massive delivery to a local group. We had to prep, wash, and inspect them. Took weeks. But it did keep things hooping for a bit.
The show room is full.

I noted that the showroom is full today. After looking at our online sight.....
OMG I SEE WHY!
Go there yourself and see the greatness that is our dealership.

Today's tip on your Hemi.
You hearing a roar under your hood? Don't let this one go. It's most like your manifolds leaking. You can save it now with some gaskets and bolts.
Or you can wait and burn out some valves. I'd come see us this week coming.

Come for an oil change and see God's Great Earth.
You can easily leave your car or truck with us and go a few miles away to see so much.
There are so many near by boat rides you can take.
You can drive into Canada if you want. There are so many options.
We have an alignment machine in the BUILDING!
We used to send the jobs out. It took hours. We had no control on how good they were. Now we can do them as you sip a free cup of coffee and watch through the glass.
We have wiper blades for just about all makes.
We have your average basic blades that average out at $12.45 each plus tax. We have the beam blades for an average of $24.75 plus tax.
