Just a Followup to the tragic death of our friend, JimmieD. Those of you who knew Jim, knew he was a private man, with little regard for the intrusion into our lives called the government. That aversion to being on the grid, came back to haunt us and his children, as Jim had not listed any beneficiary for his belongings, guns and bank accounts. Let me take this time to remind any of you how imp

In a most amazing turn of events, I discovered Jim had a family, a son and two daughters. It has been a taxing and stressful week, one which ended on a positive note as I spent nearly a hour on the phone with his son and youngest daughter. Jimmie has to be smiling down on this turn of events.

Thanks Terry! I know he would have loved reading that! He commented favorably about you on several occasions. He always had a twinkle in his eye when talking trucks and forum affairs, it gave him great joy.

Thank you John. We here at the various Dodge Forums and in his church, were his family. He will be missed by all.
Forum: Sweptliners Memorial

I just wanted to add, Terry and Jim had some pretty notable discussions here in the past, but Jim always respected Terry's knowledge and input. Some of those exchanges were classic. He will be very missed.

On Tuesday, April 8, 2014, my friend Jim Dardis, was traveling from his Southern Sierra home, where he lived, as a caretaker on my ranch, to his doctor in Lake Isabella. Jim was driving his beloved Dodge Town Wagon, when a woman in a Blazer, came across the double yellow and hit him head-on. Jim was severely injured and airlifted to a hospital where both drivers succumbed to their injuries. In a

Hi John, Thanks! There's been a few health problems, but generally all is good. I'm out of warranty, but Tina's been putting up with me anyway! Just when I'm healthy enough to go into the shop, something else comes up, but I'm hoping to get back at it again.

I have to be honest, as the dead line came closer, it was harder and harder for me to let go. Thanks to all (very many!) who sent me emails pleading to keep it going. I wish there was another way to keep the community going here. It's not a matter of cost, but of time and commitment on my part. I am humbled and grateful for all of the support shown over the years.

QuotePowerMan Thanks Norm for all your work. I have leared a lot about these trucks the past 7 years. It was right at 7 years ago with in a week or so when my Dad and I bought my W100 and began the restoration. Between the DTA photo albums and the people on this forum so many of my questions were answered. I was also nice to meet you a few years back at the California Power Wagon Rally. Hope all
