A muscle car guy passes
Journalist Paul Zazarine left this world this morning, from what I was told. I know he was deep into Corvettes so some here may be familiar with him. Me? I know him as a Pontiac guy and former editor of <span style="font-style: italic">Musclecar Review.</span>

Re: A muscle car guy passes
Man, that really is a downer. He was involved with GTO's and Musclecar magazines for what seemed like forever. A real car enthusiast. RIP

Re: A muscle car guy passes
I just learned of his passing on the Performanceyears website. This is quite a shock. He was a great guy with a great sense of humor.
I worked with Paul at Dobbs Publishing from 1990 to 1994 when he was editor of Corvette Fever and I was managing editor of Mopar Muscle and tech editor for Musclecar Review. I started dating his editorial assistant back in 91. I remember him giving me the sage advice: "Be nice to her or I'll kill you, kid". She and I have been married for 17 years now...and it's all Paul's fault. He was a heck of a matchmaker. RIP big guy!

Re: A muscle car guy passes
I had the pleasure of meeting him a few times, in the early days of the Mecum Auction. He was always willing to speak with me. This is Sad news.
