    From my understanding, this person passed away in may. not too long before he passed, we had made a transaction for powder coating some sebrings i had just bought. not knowing his condition, he took my wheels and cash to his friends shop to take care of everything for me.. i dont think he was very known on the forums, he had just bought himself a mk2 and was very interested in getting into the scene.

    he was from the 909 area. drove a silver honda crv. was doing a vr6 swap into a mk2.



    if anyone knows of this person or have any info please let me know!

    from what i could make of the text messages i got from his family members, it sounded like he passed away in may. ive been trying to get a hold of any of his family since then and haven't gotten a reply.

    do you happen to have any info? maybe where he lived or any phone numbers?

    unfortunately i began a business transaction with him and wasnt able to be completed..

    what area did you see him in? or his car i should say.. i dont wanna believe a guy like him would rip me off. especially using cancer as an excuse.

    could you try to contact him? if you have a second free.. the number i have just keeps ringing and it doesn't let me leave a voicemail. maybe you have a different one.

    thanks for the reply!
