Re: 68 Four door build
Thats really sad. Just an idea, but i wonder if we could do a sort of raffle for the truck he was trying to sell. Maybe it would raise more money for his family.

Such Sad Sad new, thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family for sure.
I ironically PM him about 3 or 4 weeks ago to see if the crew was still for sale or not but never heard back.

Re: 68 Four door build
He told me that someone was interested in the project. The Monday before he had moved the truck to the center of the shop and had started working on the rear axle four link setup. He wanted to make it a rolling project. The truck is currently sitting on a chassis dolly. I guess who ever buys it can have the dolly as well.

Re: 68 Four door build
I am still in shock...as when I read it the first time! I only met Tom once and conversed with him via PM and phone a few times...as he came up to pick up a roof to help with the crew cab project. Genuinely nice guy and true gear head...trucks and cars!
I am incredibly sorry for your loss to his family and friends...as I am sure all of the forum members here who were able to meet and or talk with him or just enjoyed this build thread. GOD BLESS... |

Re: 68 Four door build
I am still in shock also. Everyday I drive in I hope to see the door up and at night I am sure I hear the compressor kicking on. When I drive by at night it's just dark, no blue light from the welder or him sitting on the stool texting somebody about there project. He was incredibly knowledgeable about engines and parts and if I needed something he knew someone who had it. If I couldn't get my project to run right I would just drive over or he would come over and know exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. I am going miss Tom a lot

Re: 68 Four door build
If you are interested in this build please pm me and I will put you in touch with Tom's widow.
What you would be buying is a 2011 Silverado chassis complete missing 1 exhaust manifold. There is a new rear axle with disc brakes but it is not installed. It is under the frame but not attached. We can put some wheels on it and it should roll. The following is a list of 67, 68 parts all in excellent condition. front clip with hood, cowl with windshield, two rear cab sections, doors and extra doors, short bed complete, bucket bench seat, suburban roof, rear section of suburban, 2011 engine harness with computer and instrument cluster, 2011 steering column, and body dolly. Registration for both vehicles is in hand. This is not an easy project but the hard parts are in place. This is a make offer deal, with a hope of getting about 5000. Tom really enjoyed this group and would have loved to see one of you finish his project. There is a trailer that is for sale if you dont have one and a lot of equipment if you are interested. Thanks for reading and good luck
