Understand that a couple ex-"Toys" are up for auction late this month at the Mecum Auction in Kissimmee.  Any "stories" here?

"Grumpys Toys" available for January 15th delivery through all online bookstores, including publisher Cartech which does has a number of sample pages up for viewing on their website. Take a look at all cars from the Old Reliables through to the last Grumpys Toy. Additionally the book dips into design, developement, race highlights, factory ties etc.
The book will be available in all local bookstores after Jan15th. I can't thank Bill enough as he was a willing contributor from the get go along with the likes of Jere Stahl, Ed Hedrick, Pete Preston, Doc Burgess, Mike Strickler, Ken Dondero, Ed Quay, Steve Johns, Joe Lepone Jr etc.
Approximately 300 rare photos help tell the story and make this book well worth the purchse.

no one has known Bill ("Jiggs" ), ("grumpy")any longer than you Darwin
and You bringing Bill out to The York Show in July (in York), has been many a fans highlight !
Bill, (ecspecially with Strick driving back then), is one sharp cookie.

Friends since 1957and Lancaster Drag-O-Way, an unwritten bond
that can never be forgotten. He is definitely the man. Always was and
always will be. From the early days of the Old Reliable's to current
day. We have been fortunate to have been involved in the best era
of our sport. Here's to a speedy recovery Jiggs.
