Folks Of Interest Long shot PHX - Looking for Jerry & Mike

Trying to track down 2 old friends-

It's been a while HAMB folks! I haven't been here in, oh, let's just say a decade or so. Long enough that my old log in wasn't any good.

Might be a long shot, but I'm trying to track down 2 old friends - Jerry and Mike.
In the better pic - it's the two fellows looking at the camera. In the 2nd, it shows their trucks - well, at least what their trucks looked like 20 er so years ago, when we were at the AntiBlessing show put on by the Shifters of SoCal.

If anyone knows these fellows, or heck, if you guys are still on here Jerry and Mike, say hello.
Thanks gang.

 

I'm no help but I was there at the anti blessing.bump for you

 

It was such a fun show - what year was that '01?
I have the hot rod mag that had a great article on it someplace out in the garage. There was some amazing cars there.

 

Ref the prefix for this post- wasn't sure on folks of interest or history haha! It seems like it was just a couple years back.

 

I don't know if Jerry is on the HAMB (and he still has that AD!), but @Mike is.

 

Both on F/B

 

Thanks Mark, we are just about neighbors here up north btw.
I don't have enough on either to find them on fb actually. I lost their emails in the old email address I used for my old HAMB login. ‍♀️

 

Awesome! This long shot didn't even take 24 hrs!

That really you Mike?? Ever up at the Prescott shows?

 

Thank you!

 

MIKE WAS LAST SEEN:

Jerry's still around.

 

The search function here is great for finding info on topics of your interest, but you can also do a sort of 'backward search' to find very particular posts in the past.
In the search window, put in your old member I.D. name and also put in any keyword(s) that you believe you used in the post containing the email info that you seek. That "word" can be one or both of their names or something else that was in the text of the old message. The point is to narrow the search as much as you can.
I've done this a few times when I wanted to find something I said myself years ago. Of course, the more precise that the "keyword" is, the more precise the results will be. Good luck.

 

I dropped Jerry a line over there with a link back.

Update, Jerry knows you are looking.

 

Thanks much! Hopefully he remembers me haha!

 

Yea I noticed that when I pulled up his profile.

 

Pm me your contact info, and I can get it to both of them. I see them regularly.

 

Will do that now. Thanks much Ron

 

Hi ya Steph, yeah, this is Mike. As you probably figured, I don't spend much time on the HAMB these days, but I'm still around. I hope all is well with you, all is well with me. I still live in the same place in Phoenix, I've been married for 12 years and I still have a bunch of crazy old heaps. I'm on Facebook and Instagram under my real name, Mike Latus, you are more likely to get my attention there. Good to hear from you.

 

Am I the only one expecting Maury Povich to jump out and proclaim ... Mike, you are NOT the father. Jerry, you ARE the father!!!

 

Really?! Haha! Well yea, I guess it could be seen that way, so I'll break it to you.
We were all young(ger - younger)- and that's where the option for this to be scandalous and entertaining stops, much to some folks disappointment. Haha.
Mike and Jerry were two of the coolest hot rod guys I knew. If you knew them, or me, you'd know Maury would have no interest in this story. I had just been telling one of my kids about them and she asked me if I was still in touch and I had to tell her no. Found the pics in an old album of all my fav hotrods and decided to hit up the HAMB and see if they were still around.
So there you have it!

 

Hi Mike - awesome I'll connect with you there!

 

Jerry can be found on the Salt at Speedweek helping with the Salt Circus 28 roadster

 

Thank to everyone for the help in getting 2 old friends tracked down. I appreciate it!
