So sorry to hear about the passing of your uncle.
I knew Jerry from ptcruiserlinks.
Jerry was one of the really good, all around guys and he was a wealth of knowledge about PT's, always had interesting info.
So while it is sad that Jerry is no longer around, this should be a happy thread about your taking over his PT, it certainly is unique, and Jerry knows that you will take good care of it.
I hope that you enjoy it as much as Jerry did, he's looking over you and riding shotgun everytime you drive it.
