About Us
Screamin’ Chicken Chasers © (SCC) is a family business. We buy, sell, and trade. We locate and stock vintage parts. The SCC Team "chases" down everything from shakers to whole cars for customers.
SCC is composed of me, my two sons and a group of friends that enjoy helping fellow Trans-Am enthusiasts with several aspects from vintage parts location to restoration.
"With over 20 years researching and restoring Pontiacs under my belt, our specialty is late model Trans-Ams." - Hooper
We are working on opening a Body Shop. With this new service we will offer everything from soda blasting small parts to full car restoration.
Meet the "Chasers" Team
I have the best friends in the world! Each one of them has a great talent and it makes the team stronger to have them aboard. There is a photo of each one on the right side of the page.
"I am lucky to be a part of such a great group of very talanted people!" - Hooper
God works in mysterious ways! Well, here is further proof of this fact. If it were not for my wreck (which you can read about further down this page) and a few events that followed there would be no SCC.
As I searched for parts for Mason's car, I developed friendships that have lasted for years now. Each of the team members is a great friend and they are all very strong Christians!

The Wreck That Saved My Life
Years ago, I sold off all my project cars to start a family.
On December 12, 2007, God spared my life in a horrible car wreck. I thank God for every breath and for every day!
This was my 2001 Camaro after someone pulled out in front of me on my way to work. The wreck broke my neck.
I know in my heart that God is the ONLY reason I made it through that wreck and I pray that I honor him in everything I do. I have met so many wonderful people because all this!
Right before the accident, I had tracked down one of my old Trans-Ams, a '77 Buccaneer Red hardtop, in order to restore it for my youngest son, Mason.
While I was recovering from the wreck, I met another car builder who inspired me to get better. He and his wife are wonderful people and they have become very good and valued friends of our family. God does work in mysterious ways.
Read "A Bird in the Hand...Our Story" to see how it all began.
We decided to take you along on one of our restoration journey. If you visit the "Eleanor" section you can see our '77 Trans-Am Project from the beginning to present day.
I would like thank Kris Huen a.k.a. "MotorCityThreads" for designing the SCC logo.
Kris and I had met on a racing forum and soon became friends with several common interest. We are both Christians, Artist, and Enthusiast.
After some discussion and seeing what kind of artwork Kris produced, I knew he was the man for the job for the SCC logo design.

What's in a Name?
The name Screamin’ Chicken Chasers © (SCC) comes from the pursuit of a dream…the dream to own a Trans-Am.
I was born in 1973, the year that the "Screamin' Chicken" debuted as a full hood graphic thanks to John Schinella.
When I was 16 years old I bought a project '73 Trans-Am. Unfortunately, due to some title issues I had to return the car to its owner. After I returned the car, I purchased a very solid '76 Trans-Am and drove it for several years.
Ever since that day I returned that car I have "chased" a '73. My other love is a '77 Trans-Am, which I purchased many years after I sold the '76.
I moved and sold the '77 and a little over a decade later I relocated that car in an effort to restore it for my son, Mason. Once I got the car back I decided to help other enthusiasts along our restoration journey. The result..."Screamin' Chicken Chasers" (SCC) was born.
Also shortened to SCC, as well as "Chasers".
