About The Guy:
What's up! I'm Joe Wagner, or otherwise known to some as "Joey Dubs". I got into cars and trucks at a young age, starting with just wrenching with my much older brothers as a kid, starting our rebuild of the 51' GMC Truck that's still in pieces when I was 12 (I'm in my early 30s now... ha), and throughout my first years of driving very into car audio. I started getting my feet wet into the scene in 2006 when I started getting more into mini's while working at Stylin' Concepts/Stylin' Trucks and ended up buying my Dakota that same year. I got the truck already bagged with a few things done here and there, and throughout the years rebuilt the entire suspension, and changed a lot of stuff to make it mine over teh 9 years I owned it. I began showing with some friends, which I met on forums or through work, and now am good buddies with so many good guys in the scene including all of the XG family. I traded it for my Suburban in 2017, and it was another project. Starting off white and rusty, but already bagged, I've went over the entire interior and exterior, and have redone most of it, with the help of friends to get it where it is today. I am currently the Store Manager at 4 Wheel Parts Cleveland slinging parts.
