Probably couldn't think of Leonard without his Studebaker connection. So, I can't think of a more proper place for this thread! Great photo! His very expression shouts GREAT GUY!
Thanks for posting.
Sadly, I can think of more. A growing list, that has made the SDC, a community worth being a member.John Clary

I think about him every time I work on my 52. Yesterday I was reading old posts about overdrive transmissions and realized I was reading one of his. Since he was working on the same car, I read those closely for hints about what he was doing. I never actually met Leonard face to face, but I wanted to."In the heart of Arkansas."

He was a fun guy.

Hung around with Tom C in Richmond.
Used to see him there every once and a while...HTIH (Hope The Info Helps)

Leonard was probably the first one that stood out in my mind when I first came into the Forum. He was so open & honest I felt I missed something being on the west coast. The picture of his 52 & the primered front fender made me wish all the more I wanted to meet him & paint that fender for him. But that didn't happen & we all were saddened when he was hit with his illness. It was so sudden. I still miss him as I'm sure many who read his wit do too.59 Lark wagon, now V-8, H.D. auto!
