Bob Phillips, 74, works under the hood of his 1968 Chevrolet C10 pickup truck that he is about to finish restoring after 15 months of work in his Adamstown garage.

Over the years he has restored eight or nine cars and trucks. The finished vehicles are fitted with many new parts and modern engines.

Better than New 35 years of tinkering: Local car modder retiree calls the hobby his ‘purpose’

BY PATRICK KERNAN PKERNAN@NEWSPOST.COM

F

or Bob Phillips, building custom cars has always been about the love of doing it, not for any kind of recognition.

In fact, it was his wife of 43 years, Mary, who reached out to the NewsPost to set up this story.

Phillips, 74, said he has always been interested in modifying cars, explaining that he first got into the hobby when he built his first car in 1986.

While he said he’d always had an interest in building custom vehicles, before that first car, it had always been a matter of either not having enough time to work on the project or not having enough money to fund it.

“A friend of mine up the street sold me my first car. I mean, I’ve always liked street rods, it’s just, did I have Phillips proudly displays his 1968 Chevrolet C10 pickup truck that he is about to finish the time? Or did I have the money to afford it?” he said. “In ‘86, he sold me restoring after 15 months of work.

that car. It was a 1940 Ford, two-door sedan. That was my first build. After that, I was hooked.”

In the years since, Phillips said he’s built about eight or nine cars, with each build taking months and months at a time. He works mostly out of the garages on his property in Adamstown. Phillips said he spent 40 years working in paving, which meant he was busy for nine months of the year and had three months in the winter to tinker in the garage while paving wasn’t possible.

Since retiring in 2012, Phillips said he’s been able to work on the vehicles at a slightly faster clip, but it still takes quite a bit of time to work on a vehi-

‘This is my purpose, right here. I stay busy, and it keeps me going.’

— Bob Phillips

cle. His most recent vehicle, a 1968 Chevrolet C10 pickup truck, took him about 15 months.

“Some of them have taken me two and a half to three years,” he said.

“When I was in business, I didn’t have the time ... now I have the time to pretty much dump myself into it.”

His most recent pickup truck project involved some fairly extensive work. Phillips said that his vehicles aren’t faithful restorations of classic cars but are instead “restomods,” a term used in the classic car community to describe classic vehicles that have been retrofitted with modern equipment. In this way, Phillips is less like a historian preserving something

old and more like an artist creating something new.

Phillips said the first thing he did was cut the bed of the truck nearly in half, shortening it significantly to make a trimmer frame for the pickup.

Then, he gutted the inside of the cab, removing its old dashboard and replacing it with one pulled from a 1960 Chevy Impala, hand-building a console in the process. While from the outside, the vehicle very much looks like it could have been driving down the streets in the 1960s, it’s complete with modern amenities, like a rearview backup camera.

Virtually every element of the vehicle has been upgraded in some way,

Bob Phillips’ next project will be the restoration of barely the body of a rare 1957 Chevy Nomad station wagon that he has owned for about a dozen years.

with a modern LS engine and even upgraded door handles.

“I did everything,” he said, with obvious pride in his voice. “It never left my shop.”

Once Phillips is finished building his vehicles, he says he’ll drive them between three and five years, taking them to car shows around the country — having just recently taken the pickup truck to a show in Biloxi, Mississippi — before selling the vehicles to fund his next building project.

THE FREDERICK NEWS-POST

Phillips’ chief interest is, and always has been, building the cars. This is the most rewarding part to him.

“It’s just creating something that nobody else has,” he said. “There’s other cars out here, but when you do yours, there’s something about this that isn’t done to every vehicle. ... I have more fun building them than going places with them.”

That’s why he usually sells the vehicles once he’s taken them to a few shows, finding collectors who would be interested in his unique creations.

Calling collecting a “rich man’s game,” Phillips said that if he kept his vehicles when he was done with them, he wouldn’t be able to afford to keep building others. He estimated that it cost about $35,000 to build his most recent vehicle, not counting his own time. But he said that since he’s building these vehicles himself and not purchasing them, it ends up saving quite a bit of money.

“A guy might have a professional builder do this for him. It’s going to cost him more than $100 grand to do this build,” Phillips said. “I’m just putting out the cash money ... and I like doing it.”

While Phillips did acknowledge that he’s been able to turn a profit on every car that he’s built, he said that his hobby’s biggest value comes from giving him something to do during his retirement.

“This is my purpose, right here,” he said, looking at the pickup truck. “I stay busy, and it keeps me going.”

Color Me Purple

BY DEBRA-LYNN B. HOOK TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

didn’t do it to make a statement.

I didn’t do it because I wanted to look younger or cooler.

Or because I’m a hellion punk rocker wannabe.

I up and colored my hair purple the other day after I saw it on my hairdresser.

“I want to do that!”

I’d never considered painting my hair a rainbow color. But it looked so pretty on her. And, well, there comes a time in the life of a soccer mom.

And so we sat at the table in my kitchen, and she painted it in with a little black brush, just a few strands around my face, so understated you had to look close to see it when she was done.

I thought that might be that.

But then a couple weeks later, I did it again myself — more this time, covering more of my head.

By the third and now fourth time, I was hooked, running purple through my whole head of hair with my fingers, so that now it’s unmistakable.

People, mostly middle-aged women, come up to me on the street and say, “You’re so brave!”

Either that, or they glare at me as if to say, “You look like a middle-aged teenager.”

Actually, I am neither, I want to tell them.

What I am, simply, is ready.

After decades of being the consummate soccer mom, the quintessential communitarian conformist, of doing what was expected of women “my age,” I’m ready to see what’s behind Door No. 3.

6 | DECEMBER 2021

|

Don’t get me wrong. Certain aspects of conforming are absolutely appealing. Conforming is safe.

Conforming is predictable. I liked knowing the rules of belonging and following them. I liked sitting next to the other soccer moms and cheering on our children. Even if it meant forcing the edges of our square pegs into society’s round holes — conforming is what we all did. It was nice to fit in.

Ah, but during those soccer years, I knew there was another side to me.

Debra-Lynn B. Hook dares to go purple.

I grew up, after all, the daughter of a wild-child counterculture mother, who rode motorcycles and smoked pot, who moved us from South Carolina to New Orleans when I was in my teens.

I knew there had to to be a bit of the wild New Orleans child inside of me, too, even if I live in a tiny town in Ohio.

But I was afraid of her.

What if I opened the door to her, and never went back?

Somewhere along the way, a switch flipped. Maybe it was because the kids are raised, and they are decent, moral people. Maybe it’s that the divorce went through and I don’t feel like an immoral character from “Peyton Place.” Maybe it’s the yin to the yang. I’d been rules-based long enough.

Either way, I spontaneously decided the moment I saw my friend’s purple hair that I had to have purple hair, too.

I have a feeling there’s some of the devil-may-care in all us good girls. We may be soccer moms. We are also the descendants of African queens, Cherokee princesses, outlaws and pioneers.

Alas, because of the culture we live in that says women must act a certain way, that in fact, we must lead the way for everybody else to act a certain way, we don’t always let ourselves experiment with the edges.

Truth is, the edges really aren’t that far from the middle, I want to tell each of those people who come up to me on the street with Clairol Nice ‘n Easy in their hair.

I want to tell them: “You, too, can have purple hair.”

Even if it’s just a little strand in back only they know is there.

It disappears after a few washes.

And then they can try blue.

Hustle and Heart

50+ tennis group shares a love for the game and camaraderie

BY ERIKA RILEY SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-POST

E

very Tuesday and Friday afternoon, Jack Myers and his friends take over three of the four tennis courts at the Tuscarora Tennis Club in Frederick to play games with one another.

Self-dubbed the Young at Heart club, as they’re all over the age of 50, they rotate throughout the courts to play 30-minute double matches. They keep score but compliment their competitors, regardless of the outcome.

“It pays to be active and associate with friends like this,” Myers said. “It means a lot to me, and here I am at 98.”

The group has met ever since Myers retired from his career in 2000. He’d worked as a furniture salesman for 50 years, after serving two years in World War II, fighting in Holland, Germany and France. He was a tank destroyer gunner and is one of an estimated 240,000 surviving WWII veterans.

Myers’ neighbor Pete Long introduced him to the game and taught him how to play. Through connections in his neighborhood and church, Myers rounded up a group to play with biweekly and, as the group grew, he started calling it the Young at Heart club.

He continues to organize the meetups every week.

For its first 18 years of existence, the Young at Heart club met at a tennis club in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, closer to Myers’ home in Washington County. But after the club shut down in 2019, the Young at Hearts looked for a new place to meet.

They now carpool the 30-minute drive to Frederick twice a week to play 8

at Tuscarora Tennis Club, a place that has welcomed them with open arms.

“We’re lucky to have them here at Tuscarora Tennis Club,” said general manager Patti Haggeman. “It’s so much fun.”

Myers says he’s improving his game all the time, especially by playing more with his brain than with his body. Two years ago, he fell on the court after playing like he was 50, as he put it, trying to

run and jump during the match, rather than pace himself.

“I learned something: Old man, you can’t do that. So now I play with my head, my brain,” Myers said. “And I check out who I’m playing against and how he plays, and that’s how I’m going to hit my ball. If he plays back, I’ll drop it right over the net. If he plays up, I’ll hit it over his head.”

Myers has 40 grandchildren

and great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren who are 12 and 9 years old. Myers himself was one of 13 children in his family and said that growing up in his home in Williamsport made for an excellent childhood. His mother canned all of their food, and his father taught him how to fish.

“I love where I live, and I’m still in that community today,” he said.

For his 95th birthday, the group threw him a party with cake and gifted him a caricature of himself, which included images of the many facets of his life, from his time in the Army to his days as a furniture salesman.

Myers is active in other facets of his community, too. He serves as the chaplain for his American Legion post and sings and dances in nursing homes. At 92, he got married for the second time in City Park in Hagerstown. His first wife, Kate, died at 89, after 69 years of marriage, during the last of which, she suffered from Alzheimer’s. Myers wrote a book about the experience, titled “A Journey of Love and Devotion.”

Myers went skydiving on his 90th birthday and has been on several honor rides to Hawaii and Germany as a WWII vet. Quick to share the joys of his life, Myers emphasizes that staying active and engaged at his age is a choice. He hopes others can make that choice for themselves, too.

“Life is good, but you have to make it that way,” he shared.

The Young at Heart group is open to tennis players above the age of 50.

Some members have been playing with the group from the start, while others have joined along the way.

Jim Finneyfrock started playing tennis with Myers 18 years ago to replace his preferred exercise, jogging. While the cardio has been great, he said the friendships he’s made with the other players — who don’t take themselves too seriously — is what’s kept him coming back.

“These guys taught me how to play,” he said. “It’s been fun. It really has.”

Bill Beard, another member, has played with the group for about five years. He also said the friendships he’s made have been the highlight of the group.

“It’s a wonderful time with Jack,” he said. “He’s such a character.”

After four half-hour matches, the players congratulate each other and clink their rackets together before getting ready to go. Myers keeps a notebook with all the Young at Heart club’s information but doesn’t write down scores.

Instead, he asks members what days they plan to attend so he can match up doubles for the next meeting.

For Myers, the 30-minute car ride to and from Tuscarora Tennis Club is well worth the camaraderie, companionship and love of the game he experiences with the group.

“My message to all is to play — win or lose — but to enjoy it,” Myers said.

“That’s what we do.”

Why Risk It?

To keep safe at home, learn these senior safety tips and facts

BY TERRI LEMERE ELDER SERVICES PROVIDER COUNCIL

A

s we get older, home safety becomes important.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one out of five falls for a senior can cause a serious injury such as a broken bone or even a head injury.

Many of us have lived in our homes for years. What served us well as a safe place may become a hazardous environment as we get older. As an occupational therapist, I’ve loved helping older adults function and thrive in their homes safely, for as long and as independently as possible.

What should we do to make it so that our homes meet our safety needs?

First, talk with your doctor or healthcare provider about evaluating your risk for falls. There are then a variety of resources available to assess the home environment for safety related concerns to reduce tripping hazards, falls, easing personal care tasks and everyday activities of daily living.

You can request home safety assistance from a variety of sources, such as a physical or occupational therapist, a visiting home nurse, or a professional who offers home safety assessments.

Home safety solutions tailored to your situation vary from simple and cheap to more complicated (i.e., renovations) and potentially more expensive.

Several things to consider when deciding if a home modification is worth the expense: How long do I plan to live in this home?

the work to make the home the safest for me to age in place? Can I manage the renovation project, or do I need to ask someone to help?

If I don’t make any changes, am I willing to consider a move to a longterm care facility?

In my experience, two of the most challenging areas of the home for older adults are the bathroom and the primary entrance to the home.

Obviously, there are many other areas of the home, as well as personal daily tasks to consider when determining safe strategies, so this may be where an occupational therapist is indicated to assess your unique situation and help you decide what is best for you, and your home.

The calendar is available at The Manor House, located in the center of the Edenton campus at 5800 Genesis Lane in Frederick.
