        I'm certain he's resting in peace, now that he's reunited with his best friend, Val who passed years ago. Bill and Val were some of the greatest folks Lea and I were fortunate to know. mike mccagh

          Such sad news, but Bill has been ill for quite a while. My hope is that he is now at peace with Val. Great people.

          Bill, when he was NCRS President and employed by Packard Electric (then part of GM ), risked his job to help getting what became the National Corvette Museum off the ground. He was one of those without whom the Museum would not exist. I could tell you many stories of his unselfish dedication to Corvette. I can still picture him beating on his knockoffs before a run down the strip.

            A giant of the Corvette hobby has passed. A Leader in every sense of the word, he found solutions where none seemed possible. The renewal with Val will be joyous. RIP.

              Sad to hear the passing of my old friend. I knew he had been ill for quite a long time.
              I first met him at a Lake Erie chapter in the early '80's.
              We had been friends every since. I wealth of knowledge and an asset to our hobby. His life was NCRS. May he now RIP.

                          What a great legacy Bill Clupper left and what a great leader he was in the NCRS. We're all blessed from knowing this man.
