Walt Mordenti is now 100!

Several years ago Walt provided me with parts and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, the tips and pointers to properly rebuild the carburetor for my 36T. Note that the carb had many issues after having been previously 'professionally' rebuilt. In the end, I became the 'pro' ...but not without Walt's critical guidance.0

Congraduations Walt on 100 great years. We met several times and I have had the honor of receiving advice and parts from you for many of the cars that I have built. It is a true honor to call you My Friend. Best wishes from another Air Force serviceman...

Ever thought of one of those printed on glass wall pictures by Fracture? Those are pretty cool and really not all that expensive for smaller sizes.0

Hope you are seeing these post Walt. I remember when I bought my first Hudsobn in 1994 and you had recently moved to San Francisco where I also lived. You and Joyce were the first Hudson Club members I met. Your help building my Doc Hudson racer kept me out of a lot of trouble. I was lucky to have Smokey Yuinick helping from Daytona Beach, but you were here to be there in person to answer many. many questions and keep me on track and not in the wall!
Stay Healthy,
Ivan

Walt Mordenti's daughter sent this picture of him enjoying his cup that he received from HET membership. On the phone she said he got a big kick out of it. He also got a 34 Terraplane coupe mask and blanket, and 2 pillows are coming; one with the same picture as the cup, and one with his 53 parked by a gazebo.
I gave her the "openforum.hetclub.org" address. She's had trouble getting on and has not been seeing the postings about Walt. Walt knows as of today that the items are from HET membership to show their high esteem for Walt and his long years of support to the HET community.

Awesome, I bet he really enjoyed it. Great work!0

I’m sure Walt appreciates the recognition. I was always amazed that he accepted west coast phone calls til 10pm. His advice always gave encouragement and maybe a new thing to try.0

Walt, A few years back you helped "fine tune" a Twin H set up on a 53' Hornet which I had driven a couple of hundred miles to an annual CA Hudson Club meet in San Luis Obisbo. I never got around to thanking you for the much improved and thoroughly enjoyable drive home! Man what a difference you made---Thank you Sir!
