Re: big Willie Robinson III, sort of off topic but still Mopar



"Big Willie" Robinson was a 6-foot-6, 300-pound former Los Angeles street racer, a gentle giant who promoted organized drag racing as a way to unite people of all races and classes and ease racial tensions.

"When you get around cars, man, there ain't no colors, just engines," he told The Times in 1981.

May he rest in peace.

Thanks,
Gary H.
