VSC Village Smithy Chassis

It is with deep sadness that I report the passing of Ken Tingley formerly of Marshfield, Mass and recently of Englewood, Fl. Many of you I'm sure remember his record holding Village Smithy A/Street roadsters. A great person, friend, racer and chassis builder. He will be remembered and missed by many. RIP my friend.

I lift a prayer of comfort for his family.

I remember a flip-front shoebox that I used to see in Epping back in the mid-70's. (might have been a '55) As I remember it, it was blue with hilborn injection stacks coming through the hood. Loved that car!

My thoughts and prayers are with the Tingley family. I remember Ken and his gorgeous roadsters very well.
