Does anyone know how BillyBoy is doing? He had some medical issue a few months ago but yet he was posting, now for the last 2 months or so nothing.
Wondering if he's OK, I hope so

I talked to him a few months ago.....he was doing well and moving into a new house. I guess he doesn't post anymore because he sold his car. I bought it from him in December.....what a great car!!! Bill and his wife are just awesome people too. I'll send him a text and let him know you were asking about him.

Mark, Happy New Year to you and your lovely wife. Hope all is well with you and the family, and MY car. I have been posting on the Political side of CF and very seldom post here like I did when I owned the car. Anyway, Happy New Year, and love you guy's. If you still have my number, give me a call.

I heard from him about 5 months ago while on the "Off Topic" side of the forum. I'm more on the political CF sharing my opinions on the dirty politicians we have. Haven't heard from him since. You can always send him a private message, I'm sure he will respond.

You can ping them by using the @ sign and their userid @Bruze and/or check that user's profile to seen when they logged in last

In Bruze's case, hasn't logged in since October. Not sure if the board emails on that ping or not, I'd guess so though.

Hey old buddy, long time no hear. Like I stated, I go on the political side of the forum since I no longer have my vette. I kind of miss it, but at my age it gets tougher getting in and out. Anyway, I messaged Bruze and still waiting for a response. Hope all is going well for you too. Have a happy and healthy New Year to you and the family.

He hasn't been on here since October, and that's not like him. Unless he was 86'd for good.

Well lets hope not. But I can see why you might say that. Sometimes his post just seemed to reflect in a very suttle way that he wasn't in the best of heath.....
