I'm surprised it took so long. The place was shady when I was across the street at DD years ago.

Didn't you foil a robbery attempt that occurred when you closed the store one night?

There's a few shady operators down there selling used cars. I actually knew a guy a few years agp who once a month would hit the used car lots down there & turn back the odometers on the new arrivals from the Cicero auction. Got $25. a car & he made a killing. When I was on grand jury duty about 7-8 years ago we indicted one of those dealers on Oriskany St. (who shall remain anonomous)for threatening one of the local repair shops into passing his cars for a state inspection. I never heard the outcome but the place is still in business selling used cars.
