He was honored to be a contributing photographer at the Art of the Car Concours at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, MO. Tim said: "If it has wheels, I'm going to photograph it."
The following statement was sent to Tim from Pat, one of his buddies from Vietnam: Tim, you're an artist and an historian. One of the things that you do is to record, visually/pictorially, the incredible cavalcade of automobile history. The colors and modifications, along with the underlying preservation of decades-old cars, is a wonderful thing to see. Truly, only the human imagination limits what so many folks have done with their "rides."
