Default Steve Hoog's website

I made a website trying to use all of Steve's information he had.

Steve Hoog's 1971 Judge Convertible Registry

Some pics/links I couldn't get, but what I have is there.

Also has his GT-37 stuff plus RAV stuff.

Here's to you, Steve.

cool..he was worried about it at the end..of all things he had on his plate...it bothered him about loosing or not passing his research on..

good job!


I owned a dark green 71 1/2 GT37..and had no idea the production was so low..wow..50-100...mine was dark green with white interior 350 bench seat 4 speed..and sooooo ruff...it got parted i am sure...wow...i should have kept it

It was always his hope that somebody would pick it up and continue with it. Thanks John for being the guy to do it - you were the most likely successor.

Nice tribute to him too including the links to the various threads.

Dying early always sucks, my best friend died when we were only 25. When I hit 50 last year it hit home that I'd already lived as long after his death then he had lived in total. My friend Kevin never had a chance to have a family or anything, I think of all I've experienced in the second half of my life and I feel almost guilty.

Not sure which is better, Steve left a wife and kids which must be hard for them but at least he experienced that hugely important part of life. Same with the ending, my friend felt fine with no signs of trouble, found out he had leukemia 24 hours after starting what felt like a flu and was dead 2 days later, no pain but no time to plan things, Steve was the opposite.
