Don Broyies R.I.P

Heard last night from family Don Broyles passed Sat. eve .He was a long time friend and hot rodder will be missed.

 

Sorry to hear that. My condolences to the family. I first met Don in 1967 and purchased some Deuce parts from him. He was always a helping hand when I needed something. My friend has a Deuce roadster that came from him.

Thanks I'll miss stopping by his shop to aggravate him.

 

Sorry to here the bad news.. I'll have pleasant thoughts for him.. He's never been quite the same since his wife passed a couple years ago...

 

Sorry to be disrespectful
I won't miss him
He screwed over lots of people,including myself
While my 32 3 window was in his shop getting a dropped axle, he swapped out my mint door handles for beat up ones
I bought some 32 3 window doors from Mike Mayfield while in Gatlinburg
Don offered to bring them back to Ohio for me since I was driving my Coupe
He never gave them to me.....
I know another guy that got screwed out of his whole 32 3 window
I think if you ask around, you'll see what I mean
Sorry

 

I understand your frustration, however, I feel it to be a little uncouth to speak ill will of a dead man. Rip, sir.

I will have to remember it.

 

Also, on sad note. Pete Jerardi, long time friend of Don Broyles passed away sunday A.M. Services are friday @ 4 P.M. Pete was a long time car guy. All the cars he had were old school but of show quality. All that knew Pete will surely be missed.

 

I met Pete Jerardi at the 1977 Street Rod Nats in St Paul, when I had My chopped 40 Merc and Pete had his chopped, Carson topped 47 Ford convertible
A year or so later I was in Dayton for work and Pete took me around to meet Don Broyles, Jim Walker and a great body man, whom I can't remember his name. (Moonglow clone)
They all treated me as a long lost friend and were great guys, so this was very hard to hear.
May both Don and Pete rest in peace.

Mick

 

We talked and remembered Pete tonight at our local cruise in which he always attended...
