I got some sad news today,,,Tom Zimmerman,,,a long time ACORN / CORSA
guy, has recently
been diagnosed with a massive brain tumor and has been given about 4
months to live..
The follow on news is that Tom is a bit of a hoarder,,,,that is of
Corvair power plants!!!
NOT exaggerating,,,he has probably over a hundred motors qu ed up
inside his mom's old home here in Rochester…..possibly some number of
diffs and trannys,,,but mostly motors….also a bunch of harnesses I recall…
and who knows all else,,,as I have personally only seen a couple rooms in
the house!!!
This is just breaking news to me,,,but I understand Tom Zimmerman put a
note on some Corvair
media site that his stuff was for sale…..so I do not know what type of
response he has received
from that effort…But the close by CORSA clubs would be his personal
preference to get the stuff…
His son is back in the area, fortunately, after being away for awhile…so
he can/will be
very helpful in clearing his dad's stash…..he might want to keep a couple
for himself..
but I would expect they will want to clear, and then restore, and sell
the mom's house before the
snow fly's in fall 2013…??????
…I can not imagine that Tom and his son will be asking out of bounds
numbers for the stuff as they really need to get the stash cleared….
