i>>?All,
Longtime POCA member and car fanatic Ron Wade suddenly passed away
of a heart attack today. He was a regular attendee at the Fun Rally,
even driving his Saleen S7 some years. He was proud to be the
original owner of the very last US-spec Pantera GTS, and had spent
decades trying to create a Kustom Kar hot rod GT5-S using a real
Amerisport GT5-S as its base.A I just spoke with him a couple of
weeks ago and he was very excited about it, telling me he now had
five people working on it full time, with the ambition of finishing
it this year and trying to compete for the Ridler award at the
Detroit Autorama.
He spent his life around cars. He only had an elementary school
education but was amazingly smart. He went to work in a junkyard
while still a child, then started concentrating his efforts and many
years ago he formed a company called Chevs of the 40s, specializing
in parts and restoration for all manner of 1940s and early 1950s
cars and pickup trucks.A He was pretty much the Gary Hall for those
cars.
[5]https://www.chevsofthe40s.com/
He also purchased a defunct car dealership building and opened his
own museum:
[6]http://www.waaamwest.com/
Just last Friday he was talking to me about it, and apparently he
created an endowment to keep it going in perpetuity. I assume his
GTS will be in there, but have no idea what will become of his
extremely unfinished GT5-S.
He was just a super guy, well into his 80s but still way into speed,
using his early and late Ford GTs, McLaren and C5, C6, C7 and
Corvette ZR1s as his daily drivers, along with a supercharged Roush
Raptor pickup truck. He had a tremendous sense of humor and sent me
jokes, political emails and funny memes literally every day.
I will really miss hima|..
Mike
