I did not know Leonard had passed until today (October 18, 2022...I moved away in '04) and I'm saddened. I met Leonard in the early 90s through a mutual friend with a love for Volkswagens. Leonard taught me a bunch about engines and I even bought a '66 Beetle from him.....it was one of my favorite cars. What a great guy...I know he's missed. It comes for us all but I'm sad Leonard is gone.
