WOW! Mr Rhinehart came in today for his yearly transmission maintenance. It was Thursday March 11, 2010 and the day after he turned 102. He is truly a remarkable man. He is serving his 65th year on the board of a saving and loan and still has a CDL driver's license which is needed to drive an 18 wheeler. His personality is infectious and it "makes our day" when he spends part of it with us. He is pictured here with his favorite transmission expert, Dex Cheny.
