Voodoo Magic: Jerry Gardner's Voodoo Special
31 Returning Home From Oversea Jerry was honorably discharged in December, 1958 and couldn ’ t wait to get home. He had been planning to finish his car, but like most men his age – now 24 years old – Jerry wanted to start a family too. He met his wife in January 1959 and was married a short time thereafter – but his love of cars never was far behind. He was always into sports cars and in 1959 he bought a Jaguar XK120 and made it his everyday car – not a bad choice. And his love of cars expanded throughout the years to other sports cars and antique cars from many eras. He continued membership in the Woodstock Motor Club and always had plans to finish his first car – the Gardner Voodoo Special. He moved it several times over the years – from one enclosed garage to another. The car would remain in exactly the same shape he left it in in 1956 – like a time capsule of its era—until 2011 when it would be bought by Geoff Hacker of Undiscovered Classics.
