He had no life insurance so she and there kids are going to be living off of the money made on his projects and tools. Let me know if you are interested after Christmas and I can put you in touch with his widow. So sad...
to the ones we lost and love....

maybe we can help with donations.. set up a bank or paypal account ...

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...
