I met Bill a handful of times many years ago, and helped him at Indy the weekend of “the fire”. We also had a mutual interest in Oldsmobiles; not hard to figure out he really was an engineer. I firmly believe he is responsible for the overwhelming interest in the ZL-1 cars, and doesn’t receive the recognition he deserves for uncovering the history of them.
