Bruce, as everyone has mentioned, was very generous, he freely shared his extensive and accurate knowledge of early Fords. He was also generous in other ways. When he saw my 32 roadster with an outside mirror he told me he had a correct original standard w/s post. Not only did he have one but he wanted to give it to me because it would have a better home on my roadster than on a shelf in his garage. Turns out he also had a std roadster and two std w/s posts. He gave me one and wouldn't take any thing for it. Not many people would do that, I think you can count them on one digit.
Also, no one has mentioned his voice. He had a deep voice, when he spoke, it was like listing to music, and if the conversation was about Early Fords, you were listing to some very good music.
