Hi Everyone, I only interacted with Mr. Spadaro a couple of times but found him a very nice man. He brought a really cool '32 Coupe period hot-rod to the show in Gettysburg 2014.
Thank you for sharing - Sad to learn this ... Dick was very helpful to me over the years ... last thing I purchased from Dick was the grille prominently displayed on the front of my Coupe... will think of him every time I see that grille for sure.
We have lost a true "cornerstone" of this old car hobby, who in some way or somehow helped all of us at one time or another, either directly or indirectly. Rest in peace Dick Spadaro, we will all miss you.
I got the front fenders for my 41 SW.and bought many parts from him and always found him friendly and helpful.His passing is a true loss to the hobby.RIP Dick.
Sorry to hear this. He was a great guy and a very loyal supporter of the Early Ford V-8 Club. My sincere condolences to his family. Tom Johnston, EFV-8 Club
Rhinebeck swap meet is this weekend and I would always look forward to stopping by his spot, buying something and having a chat with Dick and Bill. I'm going to miss them both this weekend. Dick was a very good man. When I would stop by the store, he wouldn't hesitate to give me some tips on adjusting brakes or help with choosing the right parts for my project. Thanks for everything Dick.
Rest In Peace Dick! You will be missed by all in our hobby. You were a true gentleman and a great supporter, providing much knowledge and expertise when asked. I enjoyed our conversations over the years at many meets. Our prayers are with you and your family at this time.
