About The Guy:
What's going on, I'm Ben Bjore and I have always been into cars. I have grown up around them because of towing cars, since my family owns Anderson's Repair Towing which has been in Mansfield since 1940 and is still family owned and operated. I also own T&B Soda Blasting in Mansfield, Oh. I got into the car show scene from going to shows when I was younger before I had a license and seeing how much fun some of the shows were. I knew I wanted to be one of the guys with my car in the show.
I joined the club because everyone has the same common interest and I enjoy the company of everyone in the club. I had been in other car clubs that it was just basically about a sticker and that's not what XG is about. There is a bond that is built between everyone in the club and we have fun doing what we do. What I do in the club is help out with anyone that needs help when it is possible and I also tow cars if someone in the club needs their show car or their daily towed.
