Don't know if I ever met Dennis in the 2 years I've been in the club but is certainly my loss. Reading his 'Feature Car' review makes him a true
'TRI-FIVE' guy and a real 'CAR CRAZY' person. It's worth a 're-read'! The club and anyone who loves these cars has lost a true car guy.
Keep his family in your prayers as they go through this difficult times. |

Dennis was a true hardcore car guy and his story on his '57 is priceless. I ran into Dennis a couple of years ago at the NHRA Fall Nationals at the Motorplex in Ennis, even though he was very sick at the time he got himself there to enjoy the races, and last month at our Reliable Show I spoke to Dennis there as he did what he had to do to get out and see the Chevys.. he will be missed. |

I had spoken to Dennis at length about his rebuild. He was proud of his car and enjoyed it very much. My condolences to his family. I agree with Bill Dennis will be missed. _________________ Texas Classic Chevy Experience

Let me offer my condolences to the Lind family. I always enjoyed listening to Dennis' stories and asking him about his beautiful black '57. He will be remembered as a fine fellow who hung in until the end. That's spirit! Sometime life is too short. _________________ "A Classic Car is Not Aerodynamic" |
