Hi All, seems like a heap of RIP's in the last couple of days.
I do the newsletter for the Heritage Truck Assoc and I email it to anyone who is interested when it goes to the printers. I got a return Email from Ron's wife Jeanette today leeting me know the Ron died last month. I must admit I never met Ron face to face, but I've had some intersting phone conversation's with him over the years, as well as exchanging quite a few Emails. As far as I know Ron was one of the founding members of the Golden Oldies, and a few of the Peterbilt affiendo's out there will also know tht Ron owned one of the early ones.
I first spoke to Ron after I figured out the pair of us were each bidding on the same things on fleabay, mostly old Truck and Bus mags. It didn't take long to get into an interesting conversation with Ron and obviously we both worked out what we would bid on on fleabay, LOL. Ron was a generous bloke and posted me a few odds and ends over the years. Anyway it was a bit of sad news for the day.
