He is. He let me drive a 1938 Pontiac straight 8 when I was about 13. That’s how I learned to drive stick. He’d redone the entire electrical system in it with modern wiring then cloth covering over the modern insulation to make it period correct.
I can’t tell you how many cool cars I remember him working on since I was a kid….. GTOs, Cougars, lots of Corvettes (he owns 2 himself, an ‘72 350 4 speed and a 2013 427 6 speed), and a full tear down and rebuild of a 2 speed power glide on a real ‘57 Bel Air.
He should be a featured guest on Barrett-Jackson
