    Million-Month Garage Story with Luke Walker

This single location brought in over $1,000,000 in just one month. Luke’s story is nothing short of miraculous. His battle with depression as a young man nearly ended in tragedy, but instead, it became the driving force behind his passion for auto repair and his mission to help young men and women find direction in their lives.
