Al Maynard
Al Maynard died yesterday. He will be missed by the many car clubs/organizations that he was affiliated with in the Detroit area. If you needed a part for a Chevy and nobody else had one, you could always count on Al to have one or know where you could get it.......RIP Al

Re: Al Maynard
Very sad news. I just saw him at the St. Johns Concourse this Summer. He was pretty sick, but couldn't stay away from the cars. Good man.

Re: Al Maynard
I also believe he ran a fast camaro in the Gas Classes too. He was a great competitor!! Hate to lose these old timers. Can't replace them. They all do leave their mark on the sport of drag racing.

Re: Al Maynard
-----Yup Chris,,,He was a good guy. Car guy to the core. We met at Classic Motors in Chicago in 1977 when he came down to look at a 1957 Chev 2-door wagon, 283/283/C-R 3-speed with 2200 miles if I remember correctly. We have been friends ever since. He loved going over to the Cape and hanging with you guys. Used to tell me about those trips all the time. Al has run thru more rare muscle and HP parts than probably any one guy on earth. That hat of his that he wore at every Carlisle I ever went to should be bronzed. R.I.P. Al, a whole bunch of us will miss you........Bill S

Re: Al Maynard
Truly a great car guy and just a really good guy. I was overwhelmed by the mass of parts in his "garage" and all the stuff in his basement and storage building. Don't know how he kept track of it but seemed to know where everything was. He will be missed by many.
