I talked to Bob last week..........His parents are not doing well and he is moving way down south to help. Said he hopes to open up again down there.

He is still doing some work while slowly thinning out the shop. He can still be reached at 865-577-1990.

As the webmaster for Dragon's Breath, I took the site down on January 1st, per Bob's request.

He's a good man, and a great Corvette mechanic. I, for one, was really sorry to see him leave the business, but his reasons are completely understandable. I'm behind his decision 1000% .

Bob - Good luck, buddy, and the very best to you on your future ventures
