Sorry for your loss. I was fortunate enough to work for my dad for 10 years, then he worked for my company for 5 years. Hes still around though a few hours away, when he lost his dad and my papa, Man U never stop missing him.

Thanks for the support guys!

To honor Dad we a throwing his 56 2 door wagon together. Its was a flat black street/drag car that ran in the low 12s since the mid 80s on street tires. It has been in the family since 1971. This car is the reason fuel runs threw our veins.

Dad's final ride will be in this car!!

Time to go custom paint a casket.
