Even the night the car fell off the jack while they were working underneath it, didn‘t deter Bob Grabarczyk of Unionville, (left) and Tony Cristonzo of Richmond Hill, from finishing what they started out to do. And that was Won second at CNE custom show By Bruce Hogg RICHMOND HILL â€" If you want something done right you have to do it yourself. That is the feeling Bob Grabarczyk of 17th Ave., Unionville and his part- ner Tony Cristonzo of May Avenue. Richmond Hill had when they decided to build a car and second in the class that had about 16 other entries from all over North America. enter it in the Speed Sport ‘77 Custom Car Show at the CNE. Grabarczyk, the owner of the customized 1969 Corvette that won him second place in the Late Conservative Sports class. said he was sur- prised the show let him enter.
