    Dave,
    I bought the 'Tank Armor' from him a couple of years ago for my '67 as well as other misc. parts. He showed me his car collection as well as his '65 Mustang fastback, that he later sold. Very nice and his garage was something to be jealous of for sure. He was a very nice man and will be sorely missed. God bless him and his Family.

    I too bought Tank Armor from Ski a few years ago. Spent several hours chatting about car restoration and touring the ongoing projects. His garage was something else - set up to do every phase. Great guy. God Bless Ski.

    Ski has been a long time friend of mine. I purchased part of his business from him when he got sick and have been helping Patti and Ski work on their hot rod for the last year. We had hoped to finish it before the cancer overcame him, but were too late.

    Patti will continue to sell Tank Armor and if you need something else, let me know. Ski left me his contact list.

    Thanks for your thoughts and prayers for Patti and Ski.

    The service yesterday was awesome. Ski was a member of a local gunfighters club that performed at places such as Gold Field. He is also a Marine. The service was held at the Sikorski's home in Mesa.

    There was a full Marine honor guard and 21 gun salute. There were also 20 gunfighters there in full costume. Ski's gunfighter name was the Chicago Kid. The gunfighters did a shot out to the Kid and then shot of their guns as well.

    Taps by the Marine Corp and Amazing Grace and the Marine Core Hymn by a bagpiper. It was great!

    Vinny,
    I wish I was there. It sounds like a very nice Service. He was such a nice man and always had time to talk to you. He is in heaven now and probably was wondering why all the fuss. LOL. He was so humble even with all of his knowledge.
