Tony's garage has been a long-time fixture in Hillsdale. Let's take a look back...
Here is the lot, circa 1970. While most of the cars and trucks are 50's-60's, the Cadillac station wagon is a brand-new '70 model!
And here is a very young Tony, learning the ropes from his dad, Tim, and his uncle, Mark. The panel truck belonged to Roy Wilson, who was the local handyman for nearly 50 years. By some estimates, he "improved" about one-third of the houses in town, as well as many of the offices downtown. This truck served him well, and he took care of it in return.
And now, Tony passes the family trade down to his son, Tony Jr.
The wrecker for a local towing outfit sits in the lot, waiting for the next accident- or illegally parked car! Appropriately, the towing outfit is owned by Mark's son, Marlon.
A flamed Dodge minivan hot-rod is ready to go. All of the modifications are street-legal, except one; the red-tinted windows! While Tony likes to work on the classics, Tony Jr. prefers the newer stuff -especially if he can customize it!
