I too had never had the opportunity to meet Steve in person, but had many conversations with him over the phone regarding cars. He was always a delight to talk with, a truly nice guy. Very sad news. My heartfelt condolences to all his friends and family.

We will never forget how quick he was willing to help our son and his Company in Iraq. Steve was ther main contributor that supplied the funds to have the whole Company be able to buy a satellite and have communications with their families during Christmas a few years back. We talked to him one day and the check was in the mail the next. A fine gentleman indeed. We still appreciate what many others from this Site did for those soldiers in Iraq a few years ago. God bless the Sandlin Family.

Aside from the world class cars, I always remembered Steve as one of the original members of this site. This thread shows the sort of man he was. RIP Steve.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: AnnieHartweg</div><div class="ubbcode-body">For those who did not have the wonderful privilege of knowing him, Mr Steve Sandlin was one of the shiest, yet most involved "Car Guys" ever. For the most part, he kept quiet, sometimes would voice his thoughts but was always kind and fair. Even more so, he was a very generous man, ALWAYS putting others before himself. There are many people in and out of the car world who have benefited from Steve and Beth's generosity who will never know the extent of assistance they received from these two wonderful people because Steve and Beth never asked for accolades.

Mr. Sandlin will be greatly missed by many, many people, Rick and myself included. He was a great friend to many of us and to the Muscle Car hobby.

Steve, we will all miss you. You and your family are in our thoughts, our hearts and our prayers.

God Bless You Sir,
Annie H and Rick N

Sincere thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. Sorry you had to post the news Jeff.
