lost a bronco brother...
#1
found out this weekend we lost Skip Yule. he was our contact and host for the 1st meet and greet at dennis carpenters. he really loved EB's. if you dont remember the name im sure you would recognize his orange EB with a complete black grille. he came on a couple novrun's and MEB's bronco shoot out before. he also enjoyed our club. I think he even bought some valve covers from me after his wife fussed with him about it lol. he will be missed. I'll try to find some pics of him and his bronco to post here.

Damn I hate to hear this! Skip was a very cool man. His bronco was very nice too - in fact I think he made some color changes on it in the past couple years. Last I saw him was back in Townsend at the Super Celebration. Thanks for letting us know about this Chuck.

I saw this this evening. Very sad day in the Bronco world, though he will be missed, he will be revered and admired for his accomplishments.

a card would be a good thing to do
If you can't fix it with a hammer and a welder then your gonna need a new one!

OH man... if there's a such thing as too late, I just won that prize... This saddens me to hear. Skip was awesome! First met him in Tellico (with Suzy, I believe). Did we send a card? I'll chip in some cash too, if we didn't yet..

No such thing as too late, I'll chip in for a card too.

Ditto on throwing in some cash for the memorial fund.

Not that it matters, but does anyone know cause of death? Last April Skip was running around at Super Celebration like he was a kid. I would have never expected this to happen as young as he acted.
