Title: Sad news, lost a friend and forum member.
Post by: Crazydave on January 18, 2023, 01:15:25 PM
Member frankp (Frank Pistotnik) lost his battle with lung cancer this last Saturday.

I met Frank years ago when searching for info on my then newly acquired 29 Plymouth. Over the last 9 years he has came over and wrenched, gone with on a parts run road trip and annually would drive one of his 29's over to meet me at my hometown threshing show. (with a collector car corner) We had some good talks and he was a great resource for information. He will be missed.

I will post the live stream information for his service when available for those interested. It will be January 28th at 11am.

Hay Dave,

This is so sad to hear.  I never had the pleasure of meeting Frank personally; but over the years had many interactions and great conversations.  He will be greatly missed.
 
Chet...

Edited my top post to include service info.

Planned on hitting a national show together, but it never happened.
Its amazing how fast your health can change. Don't put off anything on those wish lists, if you have the means to do it.

RIP Frank! Another old car guy gone  :'( We need to keep getting young people interested in these old cars or they too will cease to exist. I know I'm preaching to the choir.

I haven't been on the forum for awhile. I just received the latest issue of the Plymouth bulletin and was sad to see that Frank Pistotnik had passed away on January 14. I had hoped to get to meet him, but was never able to get up that way.
