Saw a pic of the 64 Polara I bought in Chicago last May on the net, came from this site. It was from the original builder of the car, screenname Polarapete.
Just had some questions and wanted to thank him for a solid build back in 1998, and assure him the car still turns heads and gets stoplight comments and thumbs up.

Thanks Notacharger. He hasn't posted in over 2 years, suspect he isn't checking in here anymore, hoping someone knows him personally.

He passed two years ago. He was a great guy, incredibly hospitable. RIP Pete.
Pete Holbrook was his name.

There is mention of it here in the Tacoma chapter of Mopars Unlimited.

Thanks for the info Pacnorthcuda, I was afraid of that.
Pete, wherever you are, you built a damn fine street car. You are missed.
I will try to keep it as nice as you and Joe from Chicago did.

Yep, that’s his car. Nice ride. Pete was one of the long time members of the Tacoma chapter. Alway a pleasure to talk with him

RIP Pete
