    Arms folded, toes tapping, patiently waiting for the other Caddy projects to be finished, so that the Packard project can get back on track!

    @mgtstumpy do you see anything of @CadMad
    Fair call. I see he hasn't been here since early last year.

    Breaks my heart to have to type this, but...

    Quentin Hall
    27/08/1965 - 10/08/2026
    We would love for those who knew and loved Quentin to join us in celebration of his life. A service will be held at Albany Creek Crematorium Garden Chapel on Monday 31st August at 10:30am.
    Please feel free to join us for refreshments and conversation afterwards at 11:30am at the Albany Creek Tavern, 730 Albany Creek Road.
    If you cannot make the service in person, there will be a livestream which you can view here

    Hope I'm not breaking any forum rules with this.
    It was a shock, I only messaged him a few weeks back, about pantograph doors on a '40s Bentley that I'd seen, that I knew he'd be into. He may have only been an internet friend, but he was a still a friend. RIP.

    I saw this notification as well, really sad to hear. I loved this guy's stuff, he clearly had a great talent for it and I did like talking to him and discussing ideas, even if we never met and lived a half a world away. He wasn't that old either. Truly, a loss.

    I'm sorry to hear this! We'd only connected on Facebook recently. Quentin would have been 61 tomorrow.

    I am very sorry, I have followed his work here over the years. Now we won't see those beautiful customs finished.
