Anyone know how to contact Bill Beard

[Steven N.]

I'm trying to find Bill Beard about conversion parts for a 1953 cast iron powerglide for a 1953 corvette. Does anyone know how to contact him ?An old restorer article lists him as a source for replacement parts. Thanks, Steven Neel

He's been out of the hobby for about 20 years. Used to live in the south.
All I can help.

Unfortunately several years ago I heard that Bill had gone to, hopefully, be with Zora, Joe Pike, Harley Earl, and a lot of other Corvette enthusiasts

Steve Think old DW is right about Bill, but the last number I had for him was 912-436-8888 its a shot maybe his shop is still there or a lead. Havent thought about him for years, he always wore coveralls. I bought my 53 in 85 and he and Steve S helped me alot with it. Phil 8063 He was from Albany GA.

Believe DW and Phil are correct that Bill is gone.
His machine shop was auctioned off many years ago.Bob
