Saw Grumpy race several times back in the 1960's and actually spoke to him once. Nice guy. RIP Bill.

Still remember the bearskin rug pic of Grump. Somewhere I have a bunch of pics of his Camaros and Vegas.

Met him a few times, last time was a few years ago when he was back in pro-stock with a kid named Dave Connolly(?). Used to love seeing him run against the hemi-boys and always had my magazine subscriptions. Still have my "Grump-Lump" hood-scoop out in the garage. Maybe I'll have to go and attempt a "tribute-car" out of the '68. About 15-years back there was a guy that was running a Sox-Martin tribute 'Cuda that was 440 2X4 powered.
