Default Automasters now a piece of history.

I hadn't been by there in a while so I made a quick side trip during the 21st
Anniversary at the NCM to see if it was still there. There is a big "For Lease" sign in front of the building. I kinda expected it but was hoping that it would stay open. Not to be since the kids all live in California. Another part of ZR-1 history belonging to the ages.

Unfortunate, but I'm glad I got to know Jim and spend some time in the shop. Without question, a very knowledgeable individual on the ZR-1, and vehicles in general. He truly is a part of the ZR-1 Legend, and I was fortunate to drive his Black Widow last year.

You are quite right, Joe. When you look at what he did and how he did it, no question, he is or was a part of the Legend of the ZR-1. I don't remember but did someone make mention of a brick for him at the NCM? Is anyone doing this? Just talking out loud again.
