Mike Gates!

Hey I was wondering if anyone knows a Mike Gates! The guy I bought my 92 GSX (Ben M. from So. St. Paul) from bought it from him. I believe he went to the U of M! He bought a tranny and x-fer case from John Walsh in Redwing. It had no reverse for awhile. Just wondering if he is on here or not. Orif anyone knows him!

I haven't heard that name in a long time.

[94AWDTSi]

So you know him? Or...

[AJ]

I've met him before. Long time ago. BTW, why is this in the members intro forum? I'm gonna move it.

Haven't heard about him in quite a while. Drove a black 2G right?

[94AWDTSi]

Sorry, well I was think BIOS haha! I don't know what he drives or who he is. The guy who I bought it from bought it from him. He left his Log book. Most of the things he'd done to my 92 GSX since Jan of 99! Most of the 140,XXX miles were from high way miles that he recorded. I just wanted to ask anything else he'd done to the car. A lot of wires spliced and all. Passenger side dash is cut out, etc.

Yeah, I knew him pretty well. He copied my Talon conversion on the GSX. What do you want to know?

If he is not a hack job like Chris Johnson.... I wonder if that kid is still driving that rex.

[Goat Blower]

He's definitely not a hack job, he was pretty particular about doing things right. Plus I think he was going to school to be an engineer, and was working part time at 3M. He filled in the antenna and wiper holes in my rear spoiler, and did a real nice job. Chris Johnson just kind of threw shit together.

Man all these old-school names....haven't heard about Johnson in at least 4 years, probably closer to 5.
