Joey,you've given our favorite site some fresh energy and some new ideas.Ryan outdid himself on this one.
I was scared for a while when you did a custom post...but you've redeemed yourself on the last few drag car ones. Oh and I like the pic of my shoe.lol
Joey, Congrats on a year of bringing us the schtuff we love! You've kicked ass ever since you agreed to hop in a death trap with some weird drunk guy to terrorize the ghetto! I spent too much time dealing with Ogle County as well.....lets not do that again!
That's awesome!!! Your stories just keep getting better and better!!! Hope to run into you sometime this summer.
Field Reporter, Wow. Does that come with a raise? Just kidding, can't believe all those great posts came in such a short time. Remember Jimmy Olson was a cub reporter and his pal was Superman!
Joey, I dig your writing style....You are definitely an asset to the Journal. It was a good year...thanks!
Great work and I look forward to your post's. If you venture over too the west side of the state I can give you some leads on places to visit. Chris
Your writing is terrible and you should really get a photo journalism student to take the pictures for you. You probably don't even like pizza. Get a real job, you slacker. xoxoxo
Good read as always. Next time you have a problem with Ogle Co. let us know, we know the Sheriff who is also our town mayor.
Oh yea.......any more information or shots of that yellow 'nosed' Model A coupe? Or are you saving it for a future post? Thanks, Chris
Thanks for all the kind words, guys. You all rule. And Chris, That car was the predecessor to this machine (pictured below) and run by the Hollish Bros. from Akron, Ohio. The two ran the same blown Olds motor. I was going to include it in the "Function Over Form" article, but it didn't make the cut. Hollish by j.ukrop, on Flickr
Man I'm planning a trip over to his house just to look at thing...who knows...maybe it'll be the first truly foreign feature car on The Jalopy Journal? hah.
Thanks for the additional photo......It's funny.......I can see you typing your JJ blog/post's in an old dusty garage digging thru a shoe box FULL of photo's......I hope that make's sense and doesn't offend you......Your blog post's rule! Chris
Thanks man. No offense taken. That's the vibe I'm going for. Glad ya dig it. Maybe I'll submit something to the Garage Journal about my TJJ workspace...
