After 21 years I?m closing the doors.

I?ve been a professional mechanic for over 21 years. In the last seven years I have focused on fixing 60s to 70s muscle cars and a few exotic vehicles. The last two weeks I have been doing some soul searching and decided I no longer want to trade my spare evening and weekend time for extra money I?ve been making repairing these cars. I?ve resolved to fix only my personal cars and those of my family and close friends. I?m going to sell the business to a personal friend in Jackson, MI and send a letter to my customers directing them to his business.

I understand this does little to affect the community here on ATOT but I wanted those few friends I have made to know how my life is changing, hopefully for the better. My marriage is in trouble and my kids are missing me because of all the time I spend away from them. It won?t hurt my income too bad because I have my land development company my brother runs for me to fall back on plus I have my main job to support my family.

I?ll still continue to provide useless car advise on the forums and any PM sent to me. I?m looking forward to the change and hope my life and those around me will only improve from this point on.

Your Friend,
Quixfire

I'm sure that was a tough decision but I give you a lot of credit for taking that step. Hope everything works out with your marriage, and I'm sure it will since you're putting it first.

Gratz.

It was nice playing WoW with you. Btw, my 89 Galant makes funny noises?
