Charlie is still there and really a great guy to talk to...Last time I was there he back cut some rings for me and we sat and talked about the old days for a while...He has a good memory cause he remebered an incident both our places had with Ralph from T/K's. We both did some machine work apprently on the same block and something somewhere went wrong and Ralph was not happy......and if he was not happy you heard about it....and we all got an earfull on that one.....

The place Weston is in now and for the last 25+ years was T/K's shop when they built the Chevelle.......

Charlie worked for John Hoffman I believe at one time.......

He has a CNC block machine and he told me he spent more on that machine and the tooling for it than he had spent on all the other machines he has and that was over 25 years worth! His place is packed with machines......
