It's with great regret that I must tell that Pete Westler has past away. after a short illness
He was the original owner of A.C & R. and a founding member of the Redding Rambling A's. Pete also manufactured many after market parts for the "A".

Pete, may your road be smooth, your tank always full, the wind in your face as you drive that great Model A in the sky, your are truly missed old friend.

That's terrible to hear. I only met Pete once. I'm sad. I was looking forward to learning from him. My condolences to his family and friends.

In my travels to Oregon I would stop by the shop and visit with Pete...
Great guy, many stories to tell and a lot of fun.

My sorrow goes to Pete's family.... Pete was one heck of a Model A'er.
