I wasn't aware of any health problems, but then, I had only talked with Tom once or twice. I did a small project for Tom and asked for no compensation. Tom wouldn't hear of it and sent me a 'token of appreciation'.
My only dealings with him were positive.

Godspeed Sir.

I never got to meet Tom. But when I was looking for information about the 1968 Yenko Camaro´s and the MV coded 396 engines, he sent me e-mails with information about his unconverted car. It was much appreciated.
Rest in peace.

didn't really know Tom, except an eBay transaction we did years ago. I pray his family is able to cope with such a tremendous loss. It's terrible to hear this sort of news.
