Villa Park, Franklin Park, South Trenton, and nearby Hamilton also mentioned. Use the search box atop the blog to find schools,churches,streets,stores,bars etc that you remember. Over 4000 posts and 3000 pics. Enjoy:)

Smokey's Garage.......it use to be on Whittaker and Swan...?
Smokey's was also on Kuser Road for some time before moving to the Chambers Street location. You may also not know that he was related to the great saxman, Sam Buttera.

Ah...Sammy and the Witnesses....
Hey Pass...that's the "relations" I was talking about on the Louie Prima page...couldn't remember Smokey's real name...do you??
I remember smokey's. Had my car repaired there.
SC
used to get inspection stickers at smokeys for $5, no questions asked
When Smokey's was on Whittaker and Swan I had a '50 Ford 2 door coupe that I kept burning the clutch out..he introduced me to Riley's Junkyard on Deutz Ave in Deutzville...anyone remember that one? Riley was a real character..
I may be wrong but i think that used to be Storkeys garage back in the early 60's. he had a really bad german sheppard that bit the newspaper deliver man that would drop off my newspapers.. after the bite i had to haul my papers from far away to deliver on my route on chambers street.
Anonymous...I finally woke up! Your right Smokey's was originally on Kuser Rd before Chambers...Whittaker & Swan was the Gulf station-Storkey's. Another fix-it garage was Bodnar's on Clinton & Hudson...across from Gliba's Bar.
