Welcome to Pop's Garage!

Pop's Garage, not a real place, so don't look for it in the Yellow Pages, lol. Actually, my wife has called me "Poppa" since before we got married, and I thought it would be a good name for a garage if I were to ever open one. So I'm using it here.

On to the purpose of this blog. I love pretty much anything to do with cars. Mostly old muscle cars, classic trucks, mini trucks, diesel trucks, hot rods and some sport compacts. Some times, I either get to working on a project, or have ideas for one and I like to share the info with others. There are also times I am working on a car for someone and I need to complain about the engineers bad ideas, or rave about the good ones. So this is my place to do that.

A little background on me and my automotive experience. I have been driving since 1992, when I turned 16. I have worked in the automotive industry in some way since 1994, off and on, either selling parts, delivering parts, installing parts or making parts. I have been in to building custom cars for just as long. I have built about 10 cars of my own and helped my friends on dozens more in the past. I have been in 5 car clubs since I was 16, and president of 3 of those 5. The club names were Syndicate (Dayton, OH), Furious Stylez (president), Crossroads Customs, 0-60 of Dayton (President), and Positive Perception (President, current club my wife and I have been trying to start since '08).

So that's all about me. Later I'll post about some past, present and future projects. C-ya!

Now Scheduling for Automotive Photo Shoots

I'm currently scheduling automotive photo shoots for the summer and early fall of 2010, and spring 2011. This can be individuals, clubs, shows and other events. For individual and club sessions, I will take about 50 photos of your vehicle(s) and provide you with a 8"x10" print of your favorite image starting at $25.00 for the session and print. After the photo shoot, we will either mail or hand deliver your print, depending on location. If you see other pictures you would like printed, up to a 13"x19", we can print them for you. And for shows and events, we will try to take at least one picture per vehicle, for $100 an event. After the event, we will provide you a CD or DVD of all unedited images for $50.

Ideal times to schedule a shoot will be within about an hour of sunrise, or about 2 hours during sunset. Also, any overcast day will be OK, but clear days are preferred. We can suggest a location, or you may choose anywhere in the Dayton area. We are on the Montgomery/Warren/Greene county borders in south Dayton, so you know where we would be coming from.

We will be attending the Bellbrook Lions Club Festival Car Show on 08/21/2010 so you can schedule or talk with us then. Contact us at photo@jgmconst.com if interested.

So, until the next post, God Bless, keep the rubber side down, and get to wrenchin'! I hope my posts can be an inspiration to all who read them. John, "Pop"
