INTRODUCING BILL MOORE

Bill Moore has been a good friend for several years now.  I dare say Bill is not as afflicted with British sports cars as some of the rest of us, but he is a motor head and we do stick together.
Bill was in charge of parts cleaning for Tommy's Topless Cars.  It is certainly not the most desirable job in a restoration, but it is very necessary.  


Bill was a good match for this job because he is a very patient individual.  He would degrease, wire brush and sandblast until every speck of old paint and rust was completely removed.  He would not release the part for painting until it was perfectly clean.  










Bill also helped strip the original finish from the chassis and various body parts...yet another grueling job.
















Bill also missed the final photo shoot due to a scheduling issue.  
Bill, you should be very proud of the work you did on Tim's Healey.  Without your attention to detail, it would not be the "show winner" that it is.
