Subject: Re: Some good new for Woodward Ave (Dreamcruise) icon by 95Vert on 2011/8/20 17:42:39 Absolutely amazing. Something about the place jogged my memory. Background, I grew up in the 16 mile area. Worked at several service stations off Telegraph while in high school and college and raced on Woodward. Late 70's early 80's. A friend had told me that a mutual acquaintance owned Vinsetta garage...Jack Marwil. I worked with Jack at a service station in Bloomfield Hills early '80's. He drove Trans Ams and Grand Ams. Actually roomed with him in the summer for a couple of months. Now I read that he has sold the garage to go to law school at Wayne State. I hope his dreams are successful. (his father was a doctor I think who always wanted his son to get a higher education if I remember) His wife passed away last year from what I read and they had the garage together. Wow, what a memory jog!! |
