fastmark OP master F Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 6,379 Abilene, Texas	We lost Bill Overcash on Sunday. He went by 62maxwgn. He was a good friend. He has done several sets of 6 packs carbs for me and countless others. I enjoyed our many conversations over the years as much as I admired his work. He had my latest carb boxed and ready to ship but was just having trouble getting to the post office. He did not feel good for the last couple of months but never complained about his health. If you have carbs with a Bill right now, his nephew is a Mopar guy and knows a lot about Bills business so they hope to get everyone’s carbs back to them. You may need to have patience in that respect. None of his personal stuff is for sale. RIP my friend.

He was doing a set of carbs for me that I sent to him back in August. I know there are others with carbs there as well. Give them a little while to get adjusted to the sudden passing. It was not expected. He was not feeling well and had a bad cough and cold. It was not Covid related. It would make things easier for the nephew who is helping sort things out, if you have carb number, date codes or even pictures. They are not sending anything out anytime soon because they want to make sure everyone gets their correct parts back. Bill was a great guy with lots of knowledge. He did not mind sharing that knowledge, either. I think they can get things straightened out, though.

It was Bill and we talked for over 2-hours about EVERYTHING and more. Bill was the GREATEST person you ever wanted to know, and talk to and just wait for one of his Moparts replies......he was a straight shooter. Super Great man and I will miss him so much, I'm in tears GODSPEED BILL Condolences to his family and there will be prayers from me you can count on it. MikeR

Bill & I had a lot of enjoyable & humorous exchanges here: he used to tease me about my blue Plymouth addiction. Bought parts from him years ago and he was a pleasure every time we chatted. I'll surely miss him, one of those guys you just knew you'd enjoy an in-person brotherhood with. I'm gutted.

Bill seemed to always have time for all my questions I know some times he would chuckle and tell me I already covered that with you but would go over it with me again and then follow up with a picture taken out of the service manual. Truly a standup guy top to bottom!
