MTo inform you all that “Friend”  Jim Proffit aka Bluto passed away after an heart attack on Good Friday last. Jim was a lifelong car man (google him it’s very interesting) I became friends with him online and telephone when I purchased the Rosengart van, Jim Had the only other to survive. Jim could’ve tell a good story a F.C. would’ve sometimes be on the phone for hours. He said that living in Poland he was starvedof English. Sadly missed.
I am always interested in any information about Rosengart details or current owners.
