Sorry to hear that news! Tom was a true LEGEND. He was a big help to me when I produced The Ultimate Race Hemi Video. My prayers to his family

I asked Mr. Hoover to sign the dash on my Hemi powered Model A at the 2014 Mopars at the Strip. He came to the car, sit in the front seat and not only did he sign the dash, he set in the car and started a conversation that lasted over a half hour. He is and always be a figure larger than life to me. My he rest in peace and know that are many, many people that influenced in your life here on earth.
