My Family moved to Wheaton from Ohio in 1956. I grew up on the 400 block of east Illinois street. Graduated Wheaton Central class of ‘ 73 after which I went to Wyoming Technical institute where I earned a Doctor of Motors Certificate and graduated. I came back home to find a job at Bob’s Wheaton Union 76. I worked for Bob Waszak until 1978, when I started J&C Central in the old Hocker Oil Central 66 building at 420 S. Main street. We’ve been here ever since. How ever in our 34 years of business we have had J&C West at county farm and Roosevelt , and J&C East in Down town Glen Ellyn and most recently we acquired a Hot Rod Shop in Addison.
