I spent a lot of time with Pete and his crew
as he built my Highboy, we were talking last fall about
having a gasser built for me, just never got that far.
He will be missed greatly by myself and my friends.
RIP Pete. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cry.gif[/img]

I don't know Charley, I had taken it out to Calif. to sell,
and that pic is in the NHRA Museum in the small replica garage
they had set up. You can see the &quot;For Sale&quot; sign (left frt. tire)
Pete also arranged to get in the Peterson Museum for a while, as SoCal
had a store in the museum.
