Event Coverage Gene Winfield Lands in Milwaukee

You were the best torch holder....I am going to sign you up for the olympic run with the torch.....

Everyone there was so awesome, and I had so much fun. Gene is amazing!!!!

The best quote from him was... you arent supposed to touch lead it will kill you.... he just told us he had been doing it since the 50s.... I would take that class again in a heart beat.

 

looks like it was a BLAST,,,
Casey's car looks really SPIFFy now,,,
Can't wait to get the chance to come up and see it,,,,
CHEATERAMA RULES,,,

Maybe the second best quote... the best was something about parachutes....

 

I just told the guys in the shop about the parachuters today!!! That shit cracked me up. That and his growing concern for our lilly white hands.
This was hands down the best class Ive ever had. Thanks to the Cheaters for making it happen.

That one was great and I wil never forget it. But after everyone left on sunday Max the punkrocker asked Gene if he ever stops working and his exact words were "The only time I stop working is when I'm fucking".

Gene is an awesome guy and I hope he never stops working. The guy is in remarkable shape for his age. I wish I had his energy now somtimes.

Thanks to Cheater Casey for setting this all up. I will never for get it and thanks to Jack and Chris for keeping everyone amused from start to finish.

 

WOW, the Merc looks killer Casey ,Congratulation!

 

I was hoping to see more of those great photos of Gene at work....

 

Hopefully more get posted. I would bet in all total there were over a 1000 pics taken by everyone.

 

Here are a few more. Stu

 

I took over 900 myself. I can't share them all with you but here are a few more. Hope you enjoy.

I look handsome.

Why didn't he just start with one piece of metal?

 

You do look sporting and no shit we all can afford a bigger piece...

 

A few more. Stu

 

I always thought Lang was taller

 

If this Gene Winfield guy keeps screwing around with these old cars, he may end up making a career out it.....

 

does anyone know Genes home phone, my sister missed here period & now my dad wants to talk to him......too soon?
