I remember Heavy's cars along with alot of Schiroff motored cars.The car that stands out was a 64 Galaxie with a cammer.Whipped a corvettes *** coming and going.
Anybody remember the Fish Kid and George the Greek?Hows about Al Cap?

Eddy (Google Eyes) and Freddy had Heavy's 1969 Camaro sitting in front of their shop in Wantagh for years and wouldn't let anyone near it. It was an Orange SS Camaro. They were waiting for Heavy to get out of the envirement he was in. Heavy and Freddy, rest in peace.

One of the cars found its way to Sweden over England, here“s a lesson in Swedish (yes, google it)
http://www.wheelsmagazine.se/fragapr...icle225777.ece
Here is some pictures from a local Swedish event "Mopars at the strip 2009":

Scroll down to find that the Sox & Martin Brooklyn Heavy is doing well
