I think this image was just added to the Namus site this week on March 12th:

Warning graphic image at this site:
https://identifyus.org/en/cases/8284

white male 40-60 years, 197 lbs, 69 inches height. Victim of a hit and run car versus pedestrian traffic fatality.

8 Mile and Woodward

State Michigan

Blond/Strawberry
Head hair naturally curly, greying at the temples- receeding hairline
Facial hair Light mustache, beard and sideburns (couple days growth)
Left eye color Brown
Right eye color Brown
Vertical scar on face-right side on cheek, approximately 2 inches.
 
He was buried without sampling DNA. Unfortunate.


Someone in local churches might remember him.

Can't suggest anything but would say that the PM image is edited to be something of a recreation. I also think he looks a little younger than the 40 estimate (though 40 is not at all hard to believe - but anyone from about (a hard) age 32 up could be considered, and a match would be less likely at the upper end of the range).
 
Well this is too bad, James has brown hair, and the unidentified is listed as having blonde/strawberry greying at temples. I thought it was brown in the photo. Sorry!
 
James's height is 72 inches in Nampn (6'0"); and he is listed as 60-62 inches in Namus. That is quite a discrepancy.
 
Someone has entered 6'0" as 60"... happens all the time unfortunately.

If he were 5'0" and 185 lbs he'd be a lot rounder.
 
I noticed today that the Namus site was updated and the UID hair color was changed from blonde to black.
 
Ruleouts for this UID:

James Bradford 1942 Arizona
Richard Dyer 1953 Virginia
Gordon Machek 1945 Michigan

Also, the NamUs profile has a postmortem. Are there any reconstructions based off of this?

His hair color has also been changed to brown. (Not blonde or black)
