Upper Peninsula man customizes vintage cars
Mike Lindstrom of Marquette Township works on a 1961 Impala in his Wright Street garage, adding 63 style Corvette taillights and a green Cadillac color with a white pearl roof. The project, started after a paint hiatus of over a year, is expected to take about 12 months. Lindstrom, a Pepp Motors mechanic, plans to sell the finished car. He and fiancée Kathy Schwenke, also a car hobbyist, display several vintage vehicles at their home and regularly attend car shows.
