I'd like to get an actual count of all the people Mike has helped out, but I know it would be thousands

Can't picture his SN off the top of my head, I'm sure I've run into him before.

RIP Mike

Madferraristi was his SN... I only had a couple dealings with him, but he seemed to be an awesome, standup guy. I've NEVER heard a single bad word about or towards him. God bless him and his family. Prayers going out to him and his...

Obituary for Michael Dunn


Michael Dunn, 37 year resident of Fremont/Newark passed away at home on October 20, 2013 after a valiant battle with cancer. He was 73 years old.
Mike was born in London, England in 1940 and immigrated to the United States at the age of ten. He grew up in Piedmont where he honed his love of cars and speed, eventually racing his 60’s Corvettes throughout California, winning records at Half Moon Bay, Sacramento, Pomona, Fremont Drag Strip and beyond. His ability to develop and harness horsepower evolved into B.H.J. Products, a high performance automotive business he founded and ran with his wife for over 25 years. His interest and knowledge of everything ‘cars’ encompassed Ferrari restoration, judging for the FCA at Pebble Beach and throughout the United States and his newest passion for Ford F-150 Lightning trucks. His hobbies gave him the opportunity to meet and become friends with so many wonderful people.
Mike is survived by his devoted wife of 46 years Becki, his daughters Hollie Meier, Julie Guzior (Frank Guzior), his beloved grandchildren Brennan Meier, Malorie Guzior, John Guzior and his brothers Hardy of Redding and Jon of Oakland. He had so much more to give and was taken too soon. He will be missed every day. Memorial service to be held Friday November 1, 2013 at 11 am at Fremont Memorial Chapel, 3723 Peralta Blvd. Fremont. In lieu of flowers the family asks that you please donate to Pathways Hospice Foundation 585 N. Mary Ave. Sunnyvale, CA. 94085-2905
