A great guy just giving help right to the end for the much loved 39 Fords.

Yes only met him once in person at his home in Bellbock. Nice guy, very friendly but struck me as being quiet a private person but in a nice way. Before I met him he sent me an ignition switch and lock assembly for my 48 for no cost, not even postage. I returned the favour by picking up a few parts for him he had purchased on-line down here and getting them up to him. Will be missed. RIP Swoop/Chris.
