Rest In Peace, Vic
Just saw that Vic Edelbrock, JR passed away last night from complications following a recent cold. He was a visionary friend to the hot rodder, gearhead and aftermarket parts community and will be missed. Godspeed, Mr Vic!Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

One of the good stories where a son inherits the family biz and does it REAL proud. RIPYour Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
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.
