I used to come up there and talk to him from time to time. Probably met you. Can't remember what I drove then, either a red or black 3rd Gen RX7 probably.
    Hmmm, I remember a white 4dr. 510 that sat behind the shop for a while. I was told that one was a work in progress. But, beyond that particular car, I don't recall seeing Joe with a white 510 with BRE stripes...could have been before or after my time.

    I was at the shop the day Joe was installing the Bilstiens in the Z28.

    It's entirely possible that we met back then, I'm not sure though. I worked at Duluth Station during my last semester at UGA as a part time tire sales guy. As soon as I graduated, I was transferred to John's Creek and stayed there for almost two years.

    Oh, I'm pretty sure solosi was referring to one of Joe's old cars, not Joe himself. I had to read the post a couple of times before I realized that solosi meant the car went to FL.
