Bill was truly a great person who will be missed by many. Please add my condolences to his family.

Yes, Andy Falandes carries on the tradition having been mentored by Bill.

Rest in peace Bill Wzorek... a true personal friend to many of us.
I'm happy to say that I met Bill and wife LeeAnn at the first Barner's gathering that I attended in Florida, 2010. I could not have met better friends than everyone I met there. Bill absolutely loved hanging out with all of us. Bill built at least three complete sets of original '35 shocks for my cars, and the set on my main driver are still working well after many years and miles.
Be assured that Bill trained Andy Falandes well, just as he was well trained by Louie Trinque.

The day JM describes... Special folks who loved our hobby!

I really ambushed them when I snapped this... Who likes to smile for a photo when they have a fork in their hand?

Bill made beautiful awards to be handed out that day.

I also remember seeing a "special edition" oil pressure sender wrench adapter that Bill crafted. Who's got that snapshot?

Rest in peace Bill. You will be missed. I first met Bill at the Barners bash in 2010.

Jeff, this is the tool Bill made for the OP sensor.
