Roy Nacewicz
I feel it's necessary to give a "shout out" to those that serve our hobby well.
One in particular is Roy Nacewicz. I am not certain what I would do without Roy's help on occasion. Roy, if you are "listening" thank you... Mike

Re: Roy Nacewicz
How true, Kube! Roy is one of the very few in this game about whom I honestly cannot EVER remember hearing a bad word. DD

Re: Roy Nacewicz
A terrific guy for sure. Fun to talk to, great knowledge and the good parts and pieces that we all need.
Anyone interesting in restoring these old Fords correctly must get to know Roy. There is much more to" Fordbolts" than just bolts for Fords. He is the only source for a lot of hardware and pieces that is made correctly and fits! Roy is heavily involved in holding my 32 and 40 together. My opinion |

Re: Roy Nacewicz
Roy is a friend on Facebook and he posted there about a great restaurant that he was having a steak dinner at that night. I asked him how close that was to Dearborn and the Henry Ford and he said that was a pretty good distance away, but gave me several other names of good restaurants in the Dearborn area. Then asked me to please stop in and see his operations in the Carlton area during my next visit to the Henry Ford. He also said he would take me to the best steak restaurant in that area. I will definitely be stopping in to see him on my next trip to that area. He is a great asset to our hobby for sure!!

Re: Roy Nacewicz
All of the above were earned and then some.
I think that Roy would not be pleased if I posted the photos I have of the two of us dive bombing trash cans at Ford's 75th Anniversary party looking for discarded blue oval Ford script cake decorations. |

Re: Roy Nacewicz
Roy,
Exactly. Therein lies why I've not posted it. I mentioned it as a very roundabout way to show how long we've been friends. No head swelling, please. |

Re: Roy Nacewicz
I could not agree more with all the above. Roy has a wealth of knowledge, and is ever so willing to help his customers, whether it's for 1 piece or several...Thanks Roy, for being a top notch supplier and advisor...

Re: Roy Nacewicz
Thanks Roy and also David, for their knowledge and help. If not for them, my 32 would not be what it is today.

He is a lot of help and a wealth of knowledge. Always willing to listen and help out . I've bought a lot of bolts from him.

Re: Roy Nacewicz
I've been in the Roy fan club for a long time. In my youth he lived around the block from us, now he's about 7 miles away (that's still around the block out here) from where I live and work. I think he has more fun than most, or at least it looks like it.

Re: Roy Nacewicz
I've been a Roy fan and once again he came through for me at the 11th hour. I was thrashing away on my 32 to get it ready for the Cleveland Autorama a couple weeks ago - needed some hardware in a big hurry - called him in the afternoon (around 3:00) pm, he managed to fill the order and ship it that day . . . arrived in time for me to make the show. He's the best!

Re: Roy Nacewicz
Have known and have done biz with Roy since 1980. Very few know Fords better than he does or have provided greater service to the hobby. Always helpful, always a friend.
