His name was Big Joe Bellocchio. He was our dad, our grandpa, our patriarch. More than 70 years ago returned from the South Pacific and began working for HIS father. He was a great visionary who saw that after the war preceded by the Great Depression Americans were ready to prosper with one or two cars in every family.
With that, came a need for automobile repair of all types be it under the hood or to the frame. So, what did Big Joe do? He began training at a utility trade school with those goals in mind. Before too long, he was a skilled apprentice serving some of Chicagoland’s top automobile repair masters.
Fast forward to today. The Bellocchio family still runs and manages the shop located at 7536 W. Grand Ave. in Elmwood Park. Joe Jr. is our patriarch now and he honors the tradition and dedication to perfection set forth by his dad seven decades ago. Come and see for yourself. We will show you the operation.
