In January of 2024 I will be celebrating 23 years in business and 20 years on the Internet. My story of the Busted Knuckle Garage has been nothing but mixed performance, constant need of starting fluid and rough idles. It's included a loan of $60K from a guy pulling an envelope out from under a floor mat in his truck, a video with Jay Leno, a home run with Mac Tools, a strike-out with Mac Tools. Disappointments piled up like a stack of cars at U-Pick-It but through it all I've made a living at it and hey, guess what....the dream lives on. Thank you to all of my family, friends and customers who've supported this man's unlikely quest for entrepreneurial victory. Happy New Year 2024!

When you tell people you own a business, they instantly think you're a gazillionaire. When I tell people I am the owner/founder of the automotive lifestyle brand The Busted Knuckle Garage, they ask about my car collection. Afterall, I've been in business for over 25 years. Well here's the workbench in my Busted Knuckle Garage and car collection? That's funny, I have a 1969 Volvo out in the driveway on jackstands. I paid $2500 for it last December. I'm thinking do I need to raise prices or find more customers? Enjoy.....
