    OMG, his name has been around forever. So sorry to hear that. Hasn't he been ill for quite some time now? I think I remember seeing a picture of him somewhere and he was in a wheelchair. Could be mistaken on that though. The hot rod shop in Heaven is filling up pretty fast from all the ones we have lost in recent years.


    RIP, and condolences to his family.

    Adio Mr. Lobeck. Bless your family.

    At our ages this is going to be a familiar theme, that circle of life thing. Doesn't make it any easier, it just is what it is.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    I believe I spoke briefly with him last spring at NSRA York, but might have been in 2009.

    Another of the rodding icons is now gone.

    What is starting to bother me about these guys is the hole they are leaving in the so-called 'traditional' hot rodding world and the fact that there really aren't replacements coming through the ranks.

    Regardless,

    RIP, Barry
