We started at about 10 am and finished about 8 am the next morning. Conway got the parts for us. What a great bunch of guys.
Mike built some of the fastest stuff out there. Now him and John L. Are bench racing again.

This describes Mike perfectly! A picture of he and is 69 L/S Camaro convertible on facebook brough him back to mind. While an Indianan; I believe he was still part of the Louisville Stock Super/Stock mafia. What a great guy!
