    Condolences to his family and friends. Met him about a year ago as I went through Sierra Vista and picked up some parts. I went to high school and after in Phoenix when he was living there but didn't have any common acquaintances.

    Just heard about Joe's passing three days ago. I've known him for twenty years. Met him on some early internet forum in the early 00's. Joe worked for the McClure father / son team of DVAP in their early days. Likely pre-early "Desert Car Kings" timeframe. He did counter work, did Spanish translation, and did title transfers and checks. He later did his own business, full time. Hauled more than one carcass out to him, to be "sliced and diced" with spot weld removal. He was dialed into the metal section market, I tried it, and found it to be too difficult to generate reasonable income. Joe knew how to tap into the annual Phoenix classic shows (Barrett-Jackson & Mecum) for contacts and customers. He was one of a kind, and will be missed. Godspeed, Joe.

    So sorry to hear. I had a couple nice chats with Joe, and he helped me out big time with some super nice dry structural so hard to find parts for one of my 68's. I was amazed at his packing skills, with getting all the pieces neatly put into one big box! He will be missed for sure RIP
