Nelson, You know what they say about a car when you do a valve job and don't re-ring it??? They say that sealing up the top end with a valve job will cause the bottom end to blow out... Gee..Hope that doesn't happen to people too.. LOL... Actually, great to see that you are doing so well. Take care and look forwrd to hearing from you here...

[Normspeed]

Yup, good to hear you're on the mend.

Hi Guys, this is Nelson's granddaughter. I'm sorry to tell you that he passed away last night. I know he really enjoyed being a part of this forum and loved having a place to talk about Bessie. Thanks for all of the well wishes. If you want to send any messages I'll check his email so I can forward them to his wife Nancy.

[Don Coatney]

I am so sorry to hear the bad news. Please tell his wife that he is in my thoughts. He will not be forgotten on this forum.

[Guest 50Plymouth]

Thank you for sharing this with the forum. We're sorry to hear of this loss. 56 years of marriage, what a blessing.

[Dennis Hemingway]

My condolences to Nancy and family. A sad day for the forum as well.

For those who wish to send a card:

I have Nancy's address. PM me for it.

I don't think I should post it for her safety.

[Normspeed]

I never met the old bird but I sure do miss seeing his postings here on the forum. I came across one of his last posts and it made me stop and think how lucky I am to have what I have at this stage in life. Not rich in money but very rich in other ways. Here's Nelson's post. It was kinda prophetic in a way.

"I will go for a long ride soon I could care less the price of gas.

Been over to weeks since I have seen Bessy.

Hope to get out to the shop, Might try to fire her up.

Have fun and enjoy life guys.

Keep these post coming.Had agreat day."

[PatS....]

Your right, Norm.

I, too, consider myself pretty luck and don't really have anything to gripe about.

R.I.P. Nelson

[Normspeed]

He may not have taken his coupe with him, but whoever ends up with it will certainly have a good co-pilot riding along in that passenger seat.

[Dennis Hemingway]

AMEN to that,

Man can I relate to Nelson's love of these old cars, hopefully I get to ride in mine when I reach my old age, I am 45, and the way the emissions standards are going, wonder what it's going to be like in 20 to 30 years trying to drive are old Mopars................

With Al Gore and his like out there, our cars will be parked in 5 years.

Anyone else see the email going around about Al Gores house and his personal energy consumption?

Norm;

Thanks for posting your thoughts. I too miss Nelsons postings. Nelson went on his long ride and his long ride will live forever in our memories. I also never met Nelson but I am sure he heard me honk as I drove through his stomping ground. The price of gas has no comparison to the value of friendship. Friendship cannot be bought only earned. Nelson earned the friendship of everyone he came into contact with. He taught me some valuable life lessons that I will never forget.
