JasonG Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hello everyone, My name is Jason, I recently moved to Arizona from Chicago. I have family out here and I am working with my family on another business which is why I left Chicago. I don’t have a Corvette right now, I used to have a 1996 Collectors Edition with an LT4 and a 2003 Coupe w/ anniversary colors in the past. I almost bought a 1999 fixed roof coupe recently in Nassau Blue Metallic but someone topped my offer and my daily driver choice went in the complete opposite direction, a 1967 Cadillac Fleetwood, a giant land yacht. I also have a 2004 Harley-Davidson Softail that I’ve ridden to and from Sturgis a few times. I have been a detailer by trade most of my life and I am trying to earn my way into ACE. Detailing was my business back in Chicago for many years and it turned into a great opportunity for me. I have travelled the country to detail for collectors and car clubs. I went to Atlanta in 2007 to detail for a club there, Dearborn in 2007 and 2008 for clubs and collectors, Las Vegas for the Ford GT club at their annual rally, and to many other customers in Michigan, Milwaukee, Chicago, Tucson, etc.. I have a portfolio online at http://jasonsautospa.biz/gallery/index.php with almost 5,000 photos and over a thousand of those are just Corvettes, everything except C1. I am working on getting the rest of my site back online since I am detailing part time on the weekends in Gilbert. I was told about a detail event coming up this month that I might be able to attend, maybe Ted Yoder and I could provide some advice for those that have detailing questions. If you have any DIY questions now, please don’t hesitate to contact me as I would be more than happy to help out !! I am working to get this picture approved for my signature but here is my land yacht. I purchased it two years ago from the original owner, I have all of the original paperwork, receipts, original plates, dealer car cover, and more. It’s not mint but it’s a great driver. The engine was rebuilt and bored out a few months ago (Went from 429 C.I. to 437 C.I.) and I’ve slowly been replacing everything else that goes wrong on it! I’m a car guy all the way, if it has tires and an engine, I’m all over it. http://jasonsautospa.biz/ACE-SIG.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /> I had the pleasure of talking to Ted Yoder and Eddie44 before posting and everyone has been very kind, it sounds like ACE is a great place to be and I hope to meet you guys soon.

TheCMSH Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Welcome to ACE! Look forward to your input and participation on the forum. The detail day forthcoming is just up the 101 in Scottsdale, not a bad drive at all. If you're used to Chicago commutes it'll seem like next door!

JasonG Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Thanks everyone! Arizona is great, you never get this much sunshine in Illinois so it's always a great day to drive or ride here. Hey Illinois wasn't that bad, ONLY four of the last seven Governors in prison! Only... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
