And the Shark Suzuki belongs to…

Dennis Hart, an artist and mechanic who moved to St. John with his wife, Angie, about eight months ago.

Dennis says he bought the Suzuki shortly after getting on island.

“It needed brakes and a few other things, and then I put a fin on it. And then teeth,” Dennis tells us. “The tourists seem to love it. One lady stopped me and said ‘Did you know there’s a fin poking out your roof?’ I said ‘I hate when that happens.’”

Dennis is also known as the “drive-by mechanic.” (Look for his ad postings at Starfish.) He makes house calls for tune ups, brake jobs and other minor maintenance. His cell is 201-6997.

You can also see some of his art work at Baked in the Sun.

When we asked Dennis why he moved to St. John from Wisconsin, he had a one word answer: “Wisconsin.”

    And his moving raised the IQ of both Wisconsin and St. John!

    I’ve seen that Hasrk Suzuki around St. John. It’s very clever and it makes me smile.
