Donald Blake
Donald "Don" Blake of Lynhurst, New Jersey was a member of the Drivin Deuces of Carlstadt car club.
Blake was a friend of Ray Soff. He passed away around 2015.[1]
In 1962, Blake bought a house in Lyndhurst from the Stiegler family. George Mizzi Jr.'s chopped 1950 Mercury, known as the Purple Bug, had been garaged at the house when it was owned by Stiegler. Blake never knew the car had once been parked in his garage.[1]
Dottie Mizzi told Ray in 2018 that she believed she had a photograph of Blake's 1951 Ford parked in front of the candy store where the Drivin' Deuces hung out.[1]
