Over the years I
have had other various jobs, I managed a movie theatre

was burned out doing the “professional world BS” I started turning wrenches at
a local automotive dealership/ performance shop. I figured it was a decent

job when my first daughter was born, and shortly after began my own commercial
automotive restoration shop. Through the
various communication channels used in the business I became a frequent user of
several online BBS forums, and began offering my knowledge and services online. The shop started out as an auto-restoration
house, but as it grew and developed Bennington Motorsports continued to branch

a resto-shop!
