From Ken

Hi Gary

My name is Ken Stuart.

I ran across your video of growing up in the SG Valley. We must be about the same age. I grew up in El Monte. My family moved there in 1948 when I was five years old. I have so so many memories (and photos) of those times. I became a "car guy" in El Monte and have lots and lots of stories about all of that. I've enclose a photo of me with my first car (a 1940 Ford) and I am restoring one now. A few other pics of cars I own. The maroon one was my high school counselor's car that he bought from the original owner in Arcadia in 1966. And yes I am now the proud owner of that same 1933 Ford.

Email me if you'd like to talk/see more of this stuff
