Ron Upham
I joined the Navy to see the world and spent my entire service
time enjoying San Diego. After my discharge I worked for Action
Auto there before returning to Tucson. Back in Tucson I worked
for a number of automobile repair shops including: Bill Breck
Dodge. I then went to work for Sundt in Morenci as a heavy duty
mechanic before I decided to try a hand at my own business and
have been happily self-employed ever since. As my Father
always said "Nine months of hurry and three months of worry." My
first business was an auto repair and machine shop, and I have
operated Ron's Fuel Injection for the last 14 years. We manufac-
turer mechanical fuel injectors or off-road race vehicles (circle
track, drag, etc.). I had three children, two sons and a daughter. I
lost my middle son, Ronnie, when he was sixteen in an accident.
My son, David, works with me and my daughter, Christy, resides
in Tucson. Following eight years of commuting to visit Carol
Green, she moved back and we were married in 1999. We have
nine grandchildren between us.
