Just thought of Paul the other day when I saw David Howard bought a 74 that reminded me of Paul’s car. Sorry to hear this. I have been around here long enough to feel like I knew Paul. RIP Corvette brother.

RIP Paul...
Paul has been a long time staple on this forum always offing help to anyone that came his way.
I wasn't aware that he was Ill, and I'm very surprised and saddened by this news.
I hope is family reads this forum and they see how much he was appreciated here for his wilful post (and his ice cream) and contribution to this forum. Paul. RIP my brother, I'll see you soon.

RIP Paul. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I was able to share many PM's with Paul over the years. I will miss his ice cream posts and his excellent posts on many of the changes he made to his '74.

Wow, shocking news. Been out of the country for a while....... and unfortunately off the forum. My deepest condolences to not only Paul’s family; but also to his C3 family. You can bet he’s out for an Ice Cream Cruise every day now. Rest easy brother........your sincerity and passion for this hobby will be surely missed.

Nothing that hasn't been said numerous times in this thread but gotta pay respects to Paul. When i first joined the Forum he offered a set of speakers for the Christmas pay it forward event that year. He estimated the shipping and later said that if it would be more to just consider it as an additional part of the Christmas gift because his word was just that, his word he said. I have a long conversation with him in my PM's that I just read over again. just a real stand up guy! I too will miss his opening season ice cream shop visits as well as his season closing storage stories. Rest in Peace my friend. We all will miss you brother!

This thread should have a thousand posts by now, but unfortunately many of the hard core C3 guys have either joined Paul in C3 heaven or they sold their Vettes and never looked back. Posters like Dep and that Canadian guy who was 'Something 73' and always causing crap...LOL!
