An Icon and friend that I will miss.
As I am sure many others will also.

Re: Al Maynard
 

Al was indeed a car guy to the bone and his collection of parts was nothing short of incredible and as stated, the list of rare muscle cars that he owned over the years would just blow you away. I had the pleasure of working with Al on the Detroit Autorama judging staff also for many years.

RIP, Al!

----Phil,,,You bring back a good memory. The first time Al ever took me into his outback garage, I took one look upstairs and was truly scared to enter. The number of blocks up there in the rafters was unbelieveable. You could see the beams bending under the weight. He said "come on you sissy, get in here".......Bill S

LOL Bill!

From his obituary: <span style="font-style: italic">&quot;Al requested no flowers, plants, trinkets and trash be sent for his service.&quot; </span>

Can you just hear him saying that?!

RIP Al!

</div></div>I sure can, and Bill S. you made me laugh, as the first time I ever visited Al's place he took me and my dad around his property and I clearly remember my dad saying I'm not going in there! regarding that outbuilding with all that heavy cast iron in there.

Condolences to Al's family.

Re: Al Maynard
 

I really liked Al. I met him in the early 70s at Kustom Equipment, here in Flint. I was at his place a few years back buying parts for my 70 Z28 and took some pics of the 68 Z28 Camaro convert that was built for Pete Estes. He had a butternut 67 Z at the same time. He was an avid gun collector too. He showed me a pistol that he said is the one that killed Pres Lincoln.Like was already said, his basement is chocked full of treasures. I'm going to miss him.

Re: Al Maynard
 

Condolences to the Maynard family. He was one of the good guys, who was a true asset to the hobby. Very sad indeed....

Sad news. I remember that car SO WELL at the US Nats back in the late 60s. Thanks for the great runs and fond memories Al.

Godspeed. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]
