He had a big smile!….Said he forgot about the Reunion.!…Really wanted to go. Still has his ’59 Chevy ! He now has a Dover shirt, and is sending Doc Burgess one Too.

That’s pertty cool that Freddie’s still at it. I vaugely remember him with Doc, but the one I remember from ’64 and early ’65 was Carl Spiedel, who was working some outfit called, “Spiedel’s Speed Shop”. I don’t know if it ever amounted to anything. The “Arrow had that name on it for a while. Anyone know what happend to Carl? He had something like a ’54 Chevy two door, red, with a TJ tuck and roll interior. That’s about all I remember of him.
