    Lost a good friend.

     



    Lost a good friend this week. Some of you may know him if your familiar with the South and Central Florida hot rod scene. Most people knew him by Bobby Dupree but his real name was Kolhman. He was a body/paint man that painted some of the most beautiful cars around. Not sure how many shops that he worked at, in and around Fort Lauderdale as well as his own, but I know that he spent some time at Fender Mender in Fort Lauderdale. He was also a paint rep for Dupont for a time.

    So Long friend, you will be truly missed.

    Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend - don't know who wrote this one but it's one of my favorites,
