Eugene Phebus RIP

Its Sad for me to report the Gene Phebus passed away on the 4th of july this year, not a big club member but always supported the meets at tower park, Who recalls the 1914 Locomobile, 1943 Ford GPA, the 3 wheel Davis jeep, the Prototype Gama Goat to name a few? a guy that could fix anything and make it run like a singer sewing machine, the tony harrah MV collection and local events will for sure miss him, thanks

Very sad, I did a bit of business with Gene over years, been to the shop many many times, I sold him the Dummy Vickers gun for the Museum, purchased tons of hmmwv parts and trucks from him, he will definitely be missed…RIP

Sad to hear! Gene was a real gearhead. Too young.

Make every day count folks. Thanks for letting us know Bryan.
