Dog, was Joey Buttafucco's First Class Auto Body still on the corner of Merrick and Milburn?

There is still an auto body shop there, but thankfully First Class and Joey are gone!

Interesting to see a Ford type Thunderbolt Tear Drop hood scoop up on the wall?

Joey Buttafucco was out of that auto body many years ago, His brother Frank took control of it (I use to see Frank at the barberhsop we went to) Frank sold it about 5-6 years ago I believe

Those are some pretty sobering pictures.
From what was once considered ground zero for respectable Hi-Performance chaos out of control,
is now prescription drugs and catalytic converters..

Speaking of Joey -

As the 15th anniversary of Fisher shooting Buttafuoco's then-wife Mary Jo in the face passed yesterday,
Fisher told the "The Insider",
"We know we're unconventional and a lot of people think it's sick and strange."

Proof of the Hollywood saying that there is no such thing as bad publicity. So here we go again with these two, seeking to relive some of their past "glory" at the center of media attention. We can assume that a book will follow and perhaps a TV movie. It's not their fault, it's ours for paying any attention to them.
