Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

I'm surprised no one on here has an answer to this question. Not being critical, I don't have an answer either. Starting to fear the worst. :(

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

Does anyone know what town he lived in? How old he was?

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

Last I heard from Purdy was end of March 2021. The following is part of our conversation via PM. I have written Purdy several time since with no response.

Last time he logged into Ford Barn was in August.

He lives in Alabama but I don't know what city.

I just got home today. I'm not 100 percent but still kicking but not too high.
I'm thinking about cleaning up and selling some Model A stuff.
Thanks for checking on me.

Y-Blockhead,

Thanks for sharing this. Not good that you haven't heard from him since then.

You do now....... ;)

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

That's why I asked if anyone knew his age.

I don't think this is Tim's OB. The OB stated the person died Aug 10. He made a post on Aug 14, see below.

Rusty, your link shows a post by Purdy on Aug 14, 2012...

Brent, last I talked to Purdy was in March 2021 and have not been able to contact him since. The last time Purdy logged in to Ford Barn was August 11 2021.

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

His post in your link is from August 14, 2012……not 2021.

Oops, I see Y-blockhead beat me to that.

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

Sorry Y-blockhead, I missed the early date. However August 11 2021 is a day after the OB says whoever passed away.

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

Pretty sure that obituary wasn't him unless he'd moved up here recently. I recall communicating with him many years ago and seem to recall him living down around Montgomery, possibly in the area west of Montgomery. I'm a member of the Model A club based out of Montgomery so I'll make a few phone calls this afternoon and see what I can learn.

ETA: I spoke with a friend this afternoon who is a past president of the Central Alabama Model A Ford Club and he said the name wasn't familiar with him. He's 79 years old and been fooling with Model A's since he was a teen so either Tim did a good job of flying under the radar or I'm mistaken about where in the state he lived. My guess is that I'm mistaken, but I'll continue to see if I can learn anything.

From a previous post from the thread ( just wondering what’s the year of you’re birth) Purdy said his birthdate was November of 1946

Re: Has anyone heard from Purdy Swoft
 

He told me he was 75 years old. Wayne
