Re: Walt dupont Not for me to say, however, my disabilities tho different are imprisoning me.
There is a time for all seasons, or something like that. We have missed him for quite a while. :( Someone here managed to speak with his wife. Out of courtesy tho, he would not elaborate. |
Re: Walt dupont I spoke to Rockie yesterday .

Re: Walt dupont Today I went to the Gardiner waterfront park car show and sitting there was Walt DuPont.
I easily spotted his Ford with the 4 carbs and he was sitting behind it in the shade, we talked a good while and he was the Walt I remembered from years past, still has a great sense of humor, and he’s got 2 flattys he’s doing right now. I had not seen Walt for at least ten years until today, it sure was great seeing and talking with him. We are all cruising our Fords/& other car makes, along with our lives to a time when things will change significantly for us, all too soon, our time on this earth with friends is so very precious. He still has a happy slightly devilish smile. I got a picture of Walt today on the electronic camera card, now how to get it onto this site is the challenge, so any ideas will be great. He has a fresh “flat top” head of hair, neat crew cut, so first thing he asks is “ hows my hair?”, as he pats it down. I said “your hairs fine, take more than a tornado to get it out of place.” He grinned. I should have asked the two fellas sitting with him their names but forgot to. |
Re: Walt dupont Greetings Everyone. Six volt, I sent a PM with my email if you want to try to send me that picture, a text message will work too, I'll send my phone number.
Walt is unforgettable. He hosted a batch of 'Barn'ers during a tour we did through Maine. Breakfast at the local diner and drooling on his four-carb '40 were included. For everyone's entertainment/education check out this old thread which links to some Youtube vids of Walt lecturing about oiling. I noticed after shooting the vids that he's got an original FordBarn T-shirt on. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showt...ling&showall=1 Here are links to the videos... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5uF...E&feature=plcp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSMJ...g&feature=plcp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE6w...U&feature=plcp |
Re: Walt dupont Thanks Jeff, and of course Walt.
Someone should probably start a thread of the collection of classic FB threads and videos. Technical related. Should be monitored as well by admin so it doesn't get junked up. Or not. |
