Jeremiah Hintz, of Murphysboro, starts a 1978 Chevy Nova in a private mechanic shop Monday in Murphysboro. Hintz has worked on cars at the shop with his friends for about three months and said it’s a great get away. “It’s like we have our own little man cave here,” he said. “We can just come in and work on cars and relax.” Lynnette Oostmeyer-Daily Egyptian

Hintz and his friends provide their own tools when they work in the shop, and they can service up to four cars at once. They work on small projects such as repairs on their vehicles to large restorations such as the 1978 Chevy Nova. Lynnette Oostmeyer-Daily Egyptian
