I saw Gene at the Detroit Autorama last winter. He was doing a photo shoot on a truck he'd done back in the 60's that someone had redone. Although it was late and he still had to be somewhere else later he seemed to be having the time of his life.

Good to see you using the patch!   Gene's a nice guy, real down to earth, but seems he always has his pix with the girls.  How'd you get in? LOL

Cheers!!

Lon, was a great day, there was an equal mix of hotrods, customs, street machines, strictly trailer queen showcars and turbo rice burners that you couldnt work out what they were or what engines were in them but had cubic dollars and supurb workmanship thrown at them. Actually i forgot, charlie hutton from Boyds american hot rod show was there as well. NO y blocks at all.

yyy

Thanks MARK and LON, shame the old bodys not holding up. I was thrilled at the opportunity and both guys despite trying to attend to everyone,s requests plus selling and signing things spared the time to chat etc.
