    Born in Blue Island IL right there by you Pigpen...did you used to work in hog trucks? My father owned and operated a transportation business in Chicago Heights. Funny such a small world, had a mechanic called Pigpen. I know your not that same guy unless your his boy. Pigpen died in 1992 at the age of 86, retired working for carbide. I'm sure you know the area and if you been there for 30 years you would remember when standard oil Blew up? BOOM!!!!!!

    I'm from the calumet area born and raised, good luck with your business. South Chicago is the truck capital of the world. Fleet washing would be a good business, one of my first jobs 28 years ago when i was 16 was washing a crane inside Inland Steel. Sold the job myself during the summer, took a cold washer into the plant gas powered and found out real quick they didnt like gas cans around hot steel. LOL

    I since 28 years ago teach and help guys like you around the country find the right training and knowledge to further your expectations.

    The fellas here at the UAMCC are a good bunch of guys with alot of different backgrounds. You just need to give us a bit more info on what you want to learn.

    Please feel free to call me anytime and Welcome to the UAMCC.
