In other cities, a car repair shop might have a black-and-white photo of a local TV newscaster or maybe a city councilman. In L.A., don’t be surprised if you see a poster for a porn star.
That’s what you’ll find at Ken’s Collision Center in Los Angeles. That’s because adult film star Ron Jeremy might be the best auto repair customer you can ask for.
Ken Corrales, owner of the Los Angeles repair shop Ken’s Collision Center, was pleasantly surprised to see it had been Jeremy calling about his dinged Toyota two years ago. The star had called under his real name Ron Hyatt. But Corrales saw right away that it was the iconic-looking actor, who has many non-adult films to his name such as the cult classic The Boondock Saints.
“I knew it was him right on the spot,” says Corrales. Jeremy turned out to be a prince of a customer, sending over highly attractive clientele after he left satisfied with the car work. “He sent some people over; they were some really pretty girls too. Really pretty,” says Corrales.
The star happily signed a poster which hangs on the auto body shop wall of fame (naturally signed “Breast wishes, Ron.”). It stands right next to the signed Mission Impossible poster from Tom Cruise.
But the Jeremy perks didn’t stop there.
When the star picked up the car he brought champagne and a copy of his movie One-Eyed Monster as a thank you for the job.
“That guy is just super cool,” says Corrales.
