Jr if you're old enough. His dad was a founder and charter member of SEMA.
I used to ride my mini bike down alleys and rail road easements to get to his dad's shop. I'd be out of gas when I got there and Sr. would fill my tank and give me one of the small 6 oz bottle Cokes. Went there all the time during the summer. Vic Jr was going to USC but worked at the shop during breaks. Sr. was the coolest man on earth. I went there one day, and Jr filled my tank and gave me the Coke, then told his dad was sick and wouldn't be coming into work any more. I had just turned 10, and I think I cried for 2 days.
