Oh no...Verne was a really good guy! I remember the second Super Car Reunion I went to-Verne didn't have a ride from the airport to Collinsville...So I volunteered to pick him up. I also found out he didn't have a cell phone...so let's just say it was an adventure to pick him up-as he had to borrow another traveler's cell phone to call me-then he mistook which exit door he was at


Took a few hours to find him, but it all ended up working out! I really enjoyed our discussions on the drive to and at that show!


Here's a candid pic that I took of Verne (on the left) and Paul Martin (on the right) and MCACN in 2014-when both were helping in the Vintage Certification.


I stood there quietly then yelled "PAUL!" really loudly-and the result was this picture.


Verne was laughing...


We will miss you, my friend!
