Bill Stark has led a full life. He served in the Navy during the Vietnam War on a guided-missile frigate. After that, Bill worked a string of tough jobs in logging and construction before becoming an electrician. But his passion lies in rebuilding classic cars. I had a beer with Bill at the Wallowa Mountain Cruise Car Show, where we sat beside his 1947 Ford Coupe. With a chopped top, custom interior, and hand painted details, Bill's car is a labor of love and certainly something to be proud of.
