He made it, took alot of effort and time. As his customer base grew, so did he.

Robert,
I never took your post as mean spirited at all. Yes, I think his office is sort of "absorbed" into one of the buildings. CJ has one big building that he allows customers to use to take their car apart so that his crew can repair it, and allows them to use that building to put their car back together again. That big building is where the open house party starts. CJ is pretty big on value, support, and service. He's one of those in the racing business who really did it right. I'm a dyed in the wool drag racer, it just happens I have a close friend who is also a customer, and he is very close to CJ. I find CJ to be very interesting, both as a person and as a business man.
