He hasn't been active since 4/28. I miss his sage advice and unique "kindness".

EDIT: Corrected the "C" to a "K" in the title out of respect.

Admins, please delete this thread. I wish him the best, and I would prefer not to impend any further on his modesty and pride, and I apologize if I have already done so.

From the time i got my first car in 1968, a '64 TR4, I have always gravitated to the crusty, curmudgendly mechanics and parts guys...because that's where the knowledge and more importantly, the wisdom, resides. There is no finer example of this characteristic than our own Cap'n. All the best to him.

Get well soon, dammit.

There is nothing wrong with us saying

"Get Well Soon, you are in our thoughts and prayers"

Just my 2 cents

John contacted me about selling one of his most prized possessions back in March. I had a feeling something was awry, but he didn't let on ...

Thanks for the update, George.

I'm hoping for the best, he's a good friend, not Krusty at all.

I met John about a decade ago on a 914 event. He gave us a tour of the shop, shared some 914 knowledge, answered questions, and was super pleasant to hang out with. Definately not as "Krusty" as he sounds in his posts.

Thanks for everything and Be Well.

If there's an address I'd like to mail him an old oil filter or something to remind him we're think of him
