Dan Krehbiel was Born Nov 12, 1935 and Passed away May 23, 2022.
Dan was eldest of four children, from Clarence New York, just outside Buffalo.
He attended Purdue University and moved to Southern California, in 1958.
Dan joined the Army Reserves and completed his degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Worked for Griswald and Robertshaw in design and fabrication of heating and Air Conditioning Systems.
At age 55 he started his own independent business, Dan’s Garage.
He rebuilt Columbia Overdrives, engines and other components. He has been widely respected and always helpful to the V8 collector car community since 1965.
Dan will be greatly missed as he influenced and helped so many with his kind words and gentile demeanour.
He is survived by his wife Bonnie, his four children, two step children, six Grand Children and one Great Granddaughter.
The June 17 Service was held at the beautiful Calvary Chapel Bible Fellowship Church in Temecula.
The church sits on a large rocky slope with a gentle waterfall on one side and peaceful forest on the other. I would say around 100 friends and relatives were there.
And those with V8 Fords brought them. The music was wonderful.
Our best to Bonny.
