Re: Bill Jenkins passed away
I too am sad to hear of his death. I am so glad that I got to see him at the MCACN show last November and have him sign my poster and hat. He will be missed but never forgotten.

Re: Bill Jenkins passed away
I'm gonna remember where I was when I got the news and the next few phone calls I made. He was a huge influence on what I thought "car guys" should be. Thanks Grump! RIP

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJpnz...layer_embedded Dan </div></div> Thank you for posting that link. It is a nice tribute. I will never forget Bill Jenkins coming to our local tracks in the mid to late 60's. I can remember, as a kid, standing in the pits watching him work on his 67 and then 68 Camaro. There was always a crowd around him when he was working on the cars. I never had the opportunity to speak to him, I was probably frightened by his nickname. RIP Bill Jenkins.
