Just read of the passing of Chic Henry.
Did so much for Aussie car culture.

Yes it is sadly true. Founder of Summernats, the biggest car show in the country with a few spin offs.
It brings in a huge amount of people and $$$ despite all the haters. RIP mate. |

A top bloke. I had nothing to do with him in the car world, but ran into him several times in something else we were involved with. The last time I saw him was a few years ago and he was still the same friendly guy I remembered. I know he had financial challenges after summernats was sold, but i believe he managed to pay everyone off and still keep his chev.
Farewell Chic, the world is a better place for you being in it. |
