OK "Josh" in Rancho Cucamonga, CA: Your not in the 2011 directory. Must we wait until the 2012 directory is printed to find out what your last name is?? I believe Larry was trying to ease you into an identification response. Please excuse me if I have missed something in your listserver correspondences. Respectfully, John R.

I have attempted to trace ancestry of Norm and is 2 top mechanics. The first mechanic was a Mr. Norm Sthiles. I was able o get into contact with a family member in Nevada, however Mr. Sthiles died ast June. I also dug for information on Bill LaRoy. He was the main guy oing hands on work on this car and on later Norm Thatcher cars. I finally iscovered his brother's widow, who put me in contact with her son. Sadly ill passed away a few years ago as well. As of yet the families haven't een able to contribute and information. but I am still trying. Norm Thatcher's family is next. I did some basic searches, but nothing olid yet. It was easier to track the other families due to the more istinct names. I have spent a ton of hours on the phone so far but I think t will pay off in the end. Even confirming their passing is at least a tart. I have found a reference to Norm by a Sherwood K, but even with the lub directory he is proving hard to get a hold of. I am hoping maybe omeone else who lived in California during this time knows something about ll this. I think the more lures I cast out the better my chances, which is why I ave posted this on 3 different forums, the mailing list and have sent out ailers. Thanks again Warren! Rich had mentioned finding a link on the HAMB forum. Here is a link to he thread I started on the HAMB forum about a week or two ago: ttp://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=606045 If anyone has any info, please don't hesitate!!!!!!! THANKS!
