On behalf of the Lifter's and all the other car clubs, we will always be grateful to Rich, for in the dark years when traditional hot rods and customs were not popular, he kept the beacon lit for us, and gave us a safe haven with his show, which became the right of pasage for all the clubs.As long as we drive our cars, his memory will endure. My condolences to Penny and her family.
Rich truly helped shape the face of hot rodding's history. My condolences to Penny and the Pichette family.
