One of my highlights on my trip to Missouri was to see the work from the staff at Manns Restoration work headed by Jason Mann on there concourse restorations from Pebble Beach to your local car shows. All work being done in house in 7 buildings with a large staff of 25.
The Manns family has always been connected to cars. Mike's grandfather Charles Everett Manns went to Detroit, Michigan in 1924 to learn the automotive trade. In 1936 he returned to Festus, Missouri to open the only shop in the area that could repair engines, body and paint. The knowledge and the business was passed to Mike's father, then on to Mike himself.
Thanks to Jason & Ernie Riley for allowing me to spend time showing me around the facilitates.
