I met him and shook his hand a few years ago at TROG, I was surprised how energentic and strong he is.

Gosh, Gene is a living legend. An inspiration to so many and a master of his craft. Can't believe he's ill. God Bless Gene and Thank You FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE over the past 70 + years. Still remember attending your wonderful workshop in TX.

Oh Boy . . . so sorry to hear about this! I met Gene at Ida's place in NJ and we had a birthday party for him before we all went to TROG with Rob's Ardun roadster and Gene driving it. Gene is just one solid dude, and I pray for the last chapter of his life to be as easy and graceful as possible.

I can remember seeing his 'leading' work when Rod & Custom mag was about size of a Reader's Digest...

How old is Gene? He sure has a heritage! We're having a 100th birthday party for my mom's youngest brother this weekend. He's a WWII vet and a car guy, almost through with restoring a '57 GMC pickup I can't wait to see. Should be fun.

Gene came to on one our club meetings after holding a class on top chopping.
He has always had an Amazing amount of energy for his age. Seeing him at Bonneville running his Mustang or his T coupe he could do it all. When the time comes his creations will live on so others who never knew of him will see the talent this man has.

Thanks Gene, you have made a huge contribution to the hobby.

Re: Gene Winfield Is Winding Down His Journey - Thank Him For Taking Us Along
 

I saw you in person only once at a shop during the ‘16 shop tour of the Father’s Day Roadster Show. You did look a bit tired until I saw your eyes - the fire was still there.
Thank you for the never ending contributions and inspiration to and for our passion …..
Safe travels ….
