Mike Ebeling, rest in peace
Last night I received the sad news from Mark that his dad Mike Ebeling had passed away peacefully at home the previous night after a long battle with ill health.
Mike was one of the early Canadian vehicle collectors, taking his superbly restored Otter to Normandy in 1984. He went on to restore many vehicles, mostly all fitted with his favourite engine the Ford V8 including a Lynx, WOA1 and WOA2. An exceptional mechanic and vehicle body builder he even taught himself how to sew in order to remake the head linings on his staff cars, his knowledge and abilities will be sorely missed.
Thinking of Mike and his family at this sad time.
James
