I posted a message like this back in May 2007 when Jim Beets(Pucknutt)called me and told me his wife Toni(XPYnsive) past away and he asked me to let others know. Well I got a message from Jim`s son this weekend telling me that Jim has past away on Thursday. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts. I will miss him so much. Cheers Jim

What a great fella...You`ll be missed Pucknutt

There`s nothing more American than a guy that can build an aircraft carrier in his garage over the weekend.

Yes, Jim was one great guy! He certainly will be missed.

RIP Pucknutt!

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of a low price is forgotten.

Several years ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Jim and Toni at a truck show in Tahoe. A bunch of the SoCal folks came up for it. Just in the time we were there, it was apparent the two them were the real deal. They were genuinely "good people", as my dad used to say.

RIP Jim!!!
