This arrived in the mail today. We honestly had no idea. This is definitely a best customers award and you folks are the best in the world. We appreciate you all to the moon and back

We fix bunches of work vans here and we appreciate all of them. This is part of our lineup for Saturday

Just a quick post to remind you all that we appreciate our customers to the moon and back

Extra fancy wheels need extra care to not scuff or scratch. We even padded the jack as to not scratch the undercarriage of this rare cadillac. A little maintenance on the hearse for the nice folks at Wilson funeral home. Another new engine this time for Anton painting. You folks keep us moving and we appreciate you all so much

We were able to do a alignment for one of Racin's great ones yesterday. This truck bumped a curb in the ice storm the other night. The truck is practically brand new so it's important to keep it nice and keep the wheels pointing in the right direction. When our customers are in distress the guys at Floyd's don't walk they run to get them help and get them towed in so it is nice for us to be able to lend them a hand once and awhile. Thanks a bunch to all of our customers for being so great

OK I'll jump on the reflection on 2024. Hear is a large project that we took on for one of our very good customers/friends. Bingo bought this truck to cruise and parade with his granddaughter however it was deemed unsafe due to the fact that the front steering and suspension was subpar to say the least. This being a pre ww2 truck 1942 there or no kits available. We were able to purchase mustang 2 type front suspension parts and had to fabricate the frame and body to make them work including narrowing cross members and boxing the front frame rails. This project offered the opportunity for lots of father son and family time and about 2 weeks of late nights making a push for a holiday parade deadline. This project was obviously out of the norm for us but we think it turned out awesome and infact I received not only a handshake but also a hug from Bingo when he was finally able to pick it up. Obviously we all wish for greater things in the new year which is great but if the new year can be half as good as the last that is A.O.K by us. We really appreciate all of our customers more than we can say in words and we look forward to another great one

The coloring pages have been a hit this year. Locally renowned artist Don Ricchio made this for us as a kindness and just happened to send us the proof the day that our Christmas card was going out. Maggie thought that it would be a neat idea to send a page with this card. We appreciate all of our customers Don Ricchio included to the moon and back and we are wishing you all a very merry Christmas and happy holiday season. We are gearing up for another rocking year in 2025

Dad has been knocking it out of the park on the alignment machine this week. The k9 police car was wearing tires prematurely. Dad found the rear toe to be way out of whack causing the thrust angle to be off essentially the rear tires were not following the front tires. The cool old school chevy pick up was treated to some new front end parts including pitman arm, idler arm, tie rods etc. The city of Racine rescue squad needed a alignment after receiving new front end parts also. Dad spent several hours on the rescue squad nailing the caster split to correct a slight steering pull but it was worth it because the department mechanic spent lots of time repairing the front end so Dad wanted the alignment to be perfect. We really appreciate all of the great business from the best customers in the world

All in the family on this one. Becky's husband James was kind enough to come in after work Thursday night to help program a new antilock brake control module for us on this van. This is the second module that we have replaced within this same fleet for a brake drag issue. After replacement the module has to be programed with the vehicle specifics and information. We used to have to job out the programming portion of the job Until now. This is a big step forward for us. Thanks a bunch to all of our customers for these opportunities

The results are In for the Journal Times best of Racine contest and we placed in the runner up position. This is absolutely a honor as it is 100% authentic with no paid for soliciting etc. You people are the absolute best people in the city and we genuinely appreciate your taking the time to vote every year. Thank you all from the bottom of all of our hearts

It's been busy the last few days. We replaced the cooling fan clutch and recharged the cruise airconditioning on Kevin's Prevost bus/motorhome. We had to replace the the limited slip differantal clutches and the transmission fluid on the Priority 1 Ford transit. We installed a brand new high torque starter and tidied up some wiring on Sew n save Jim's firebird. Rumor has it that he won a award at the Elmwood park car show and we bought a new to us lift so Becky dosent kill herself falling off a ladder painting the shop. Dad and I had to make a little pit stop at the Manitowoc fleet farm to change a tire blow out. We are looking forward to another weeks grind. Thank you for all of the great business you folks are simply the best

No work today. Pinky and grandpa are racing their go karts at badger kart club. We wanted to give a huge shout out to Sign Pro in Racine for making our old trailer not so ugly. We really appreciate all of our great customers for the great business and we look forward to seeing you folks this coming week
