Default FlatheadCoupe John McClure
It is my sad duty to announce the passing of John McClure AKA FlatheadCoupe
John passed away last Thursday morning.
John was my friend.
He was a true craftsman with many satisfied customers over the years.
A gentleman to the end.
His passing is a great loss to the Ford Barn community.
RIP FlatheadCoupe
See ya on the other side.
Phil Migliore

Phil, I did not know John but if you speak highly of him, he MUST have been one of the good ones. I am quite sincerely sorry for your loss.

Gosh, it's so sad when a flathead brother takes the final ride. May his family, you and all his friends be comforted through prayer and may God Bless him as he returns home.
