Sad to hear -- he was a major contributor to the S2000 world for a long time. I just bought some straps from Bob in August (he was still hand making them a few at a time).

I came to the S2000 community late and Bob was one of the first people I dealt with. Stand up guy and a true asset to the community. RIP Bob.

We in S2KI are all so lucky to have benefitted from Bob's ingenuity and caring. My condolences to his family - know your Dad was one of a kind. He will be sorely missed in the S2000 community.

I remember buying my first phone mount from him about 15 years ago, back when I was a teenager in high school, who had just spent 3-4 months worth of paycheck to buy that first iPhone. Fifteen years and eight S2000s later, I still have his products in my car. Thank you, Mr. Modifry, for all that you do. Rest in peace.

Also joined the S2k community recently and actually purchased some Modifry products soon after.

Thank you for your work and contribution Bob.

My glove box organiser solved a problem I didn't realise I had until Modifry pointed it out to me. Simple, but so ingenious. RIP Bob, my thoughts are with your family and friends and all those that, despite never having the pleasure of meeting you, still considered you a friend.

Is there any way we could get Bob's old site back with all the freebie information. I am sure that I and others would pay for hosting but I don't know how to do that or what it would cost.

Yes, there is. I ran into the same issue with the site being down while looking for Yellow Jacket instructions. You can find the site on the Internet Archive here.

use the waybackmachine to search for the site using www.modifry.com
