Produktbeschreibung

His huge tool did more than change oil. Jack "Snake" Elgin is a victim of his own good fortune. His quick-change oil business on Van Nuys Boulevard has grown too fast. It keeps him from the Baths. He isn't queer, but only men can handle his extremely large tool. His new employees are all too happy to follow orders when he busts them after hours. His corrective actions lead to new discoveries.
This is one of the longest works of short erotic fiction written by Peter in the 1970s. It is set on Van Nuys Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles. At that time, Van Nuys was the "cruising" street of choice for young drivers. Cruising was outlawed by the quasi-fascist LAPD, who saw fit to curtail freedoms if they were inconvenient, for along with the cruising came fights, accidents, and crime. Jack "Snake" Elgin is a businessman who sought to capitalize on the explosion in car culture in his hometown. This story tells a tale of a man battling inner demons and outer extremities. His employees help bring him out of his own personal hell into a new kind of heaven.
Of this Story, Peter wrote: KwikLube 5000 was my first attempt at portraying the San Fernando Valley, the capital of pornography and bleach blond hair. The Valley is an enigmatic place. There is no "there" there, as Gertrude Stein would say. It's just an endless expanse of ugly signs and drive-thru businesses. Nobody leaves his or her car, which is why KwikLube 5000 was such a success. The driver could stay in the car and read the Los Angeles Times while mechanics fiddled with the car one story down. Despite my disparaging words, the Valley is actually dear to my heart. The bathhouses there have the most handsome men, who are much more receptive to an old, well-hung fart like me.
