Folks Of Interest My friend, Van Enblom passed

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by TUMBLEWEED GARAGE, Jan 29, 2019.

  1. I just received a call saying that my good friend Van Enblom has passed.
    Van owned the Fat Fendered street rod shop in Kingman Arizona.
    Van was a very talented, honest and kind man.
    He will be missed. Screenshot_20190129-154111.png

    I did not know him and now... I never shall. I still have time to know you and I am truly sorry for the loss you feel. May you take solace from your friends here.

    Sad to hear about his loss. Add me to those who studied the tech articles he worked on.

    I read many of his articles and purchased parts for my sedan delivery from him. RIP

  11. Little late to the party here - I knew Van and Marlene through NSRA when he was an official in Illinois and then later when he moved to CA before he moved to AZ. Very good fabricator and there are tons of street rods with their rear axles centered in their wheel wells due to the lowering/centering blocks he marketed.
    Sorry to hear of his passing.
