so glad to find folks talking about my boss, my friend, the legendary EDDIE MARTINEZ !! yes he is still around and kicking. just 2 weeks ago he got his left knee hindge replaced at USC, and is now at home recovering. he is now 71 years old and has the usual aches and pains for a man his age but that dont stop eddie from quitting. he still has his business here in bellflower ca. though he is not doing any work right now, we are planning to finish a 41 merc convertible. i am new to this FORUM stuff, but i plan on showing some old and recent pics of some of eddies work.
