Robert Q. Riley will be remembered.

Good evening Ecomodders. It is with a heavy heart that this Centurion update is with condolences to the family of Robert Q. Riley who passed away today.

For those not familiar with Mr. Riley, he may have been one of the grandaddy's of fuel economy. Of special interest to the ecomodder community is this entire Centurion thread that would never have been created it if weren't for Mr. Riley's "Urba Centurion" which appeared on the cover of Mechanix Illustrated February 1982.

Condolences to the family and may Robert Q. Riley, inspiration and friend, rest is peace.
