That is very sad. As a Walsall boy he felt he had to have a Swallow Doretti and found one in a Walsall scrapyard in the early 1970s, the long delayed restoration started in the 1990s and was completed with the help of his boyhood friend Mike Nangreve who now owns and regularly uses the car. He was quite a character, one memory I will cherish is him competing with Robbie Coltrane to tell the funniest story on my stag night. He will be missed by family and friends and the Swallow community.

          There was a big turnout at Rob's funeral, he had many friends  and Mike drove his old Doretti up from Bristol to be there.
