I think you might have Dons last name spelled wrong .... if you google Don Cloake (e on the end) there are plenty of posts with pics of his many hemi cars. Might also be some contact info out there somewhere.
Seems a lot of Don Cloake pictures are being posted by a person with the handle Badwej, including pics of what used to be Dons shop in Toronto (apparently) ... google this guy Badwej, join the site he is on and you should be able to contact Bad Wej through that website ... with Badwej posting so many pics of Don, they might either know him and still be in contact with him or know someone who is.

Hemikev, just a thought, but i bet "Lance Hill" would still maybe know his whereabouts. They were very heavy racers in that group back then. "Lance Hill" still posts quite a bit on "Colesy's Junior Stock " forum. Try posting your'e search there.
see no posting here that you have located Don Cloake,,
But going through some old drag race site i see Don Cloake at that time (1971) was running a car in SS/EA and had taken top eliminator at the old dragway park, he was sponsored by "Jackson Motors."
I went and had a car appraised yesterday by none other than Don Cloake, and he's still running every year. He is currently in the middle of rebuilding the engine. He has a place called Don's Auto, and its at 18 lockport, unit 4. I really like him, we had a good chat. I dont have his phone number, but if you go on google, and search automobile appraisal etobicoke, his shop comes right up, and so does his phone number.
