Remeber the money from the bits is for Kev.  Get busy on the big tin toy you GOTTA have it

Its no secret here that I dont like Kevin, so to add some balance to this sob story I wonder if he would be opening up his wallet if this happened to one of us.  Based on my sour experience with him I doubt it.

I dont know you gtv6 but the aussie way is you dont kick someone when there down.
Its times like these when you bury your differences and help your fellow man out.

Totally agree with you Jimmy.
 
anyway - just moving on.... Kev has  a skip to clear some of the mess at his place this weekend.
I know most of you probably are not in Perth anyway, but if anyone can spare an hour on Sat to help out his number is 93997878

Why would you post a comment like that?

If it is no secret, then why do you feel you have to tell everybody again? 
Now that you have revealed your true colours, I don't imagine many people would be opening their wallets for you in the same situation.

A few reasons
1.  When I was young and new to capris he committed the ulimate capri sin, he tried to pass of a converted 1600 as a genuine V6.  When I found out I asked for my deposit back and he refused.  In todays money equiv to $5000 lost. 
2.  With his extensive knowledge of capris he has never bothered to give any of his time to share his knowledge and help out on this forum.
3. Good people lose their houses every day, either to fire or the banks.  Has he ever given any of them $1.  Did he donate to the Toodjay and Margaret river bush fire victims?
 
If he had of said in his video that he had spent his life helping others then my attitude would be different.  But he didnt.  He didnt make any offer of thanks like donating part of his business profits to charity once he was back on his feet as a way to to say thanks. 
 
What does that all say about me?  It says that if you rip me off I never forget and I never forgive.  It says that I belive that if you are going to ask for help that you should offer to pay it forward.  It says that I believe that if you dont live a charitable life, then you shouldnt beg for money on youtube - its pathetic.
 

Well mr gtv6 maybe this is how he will turn his life around, maybe he will have a fresh revelation of how he can help others after being touched by ordinary people who dont know him but just want to help him get back on his feet.
Im glad your not god, heaven would be a lonely place.

GTV6,
 
I wasn't aware that you'd had issues with Kevin, so I'm sorry to hear that.  I too have been ripped off by someone saying that the Capri I bought was a GT (when it wasn't).  That is one of the reasons why I am so committed to finding out as much as I can about the cars so people can tell what they have, or know what they're buying.
 
I've also been the victim of fire some years ago.  The little **** next door decided to play with matches in the dry bushes outside the shed of the house we were renting.  Long story short, no-one was interested in helping - not the police, insurance company, the little ****'s parents, no-one.  I lost all my Capri parts for the car I was rebuilding (the same car I thought was a GT), and various other items which I found out weren't covered in my contents policy.  That's why I had to essentially start all over again buying parts, and getting them fixed up.  I even spent 8 months trying to convince the stupid real estate agent that the shed hadn't been rebuilt and was still a burnt out shell at the end of the driveway!
 
I felt sorry for Kevin, so I thought I'd post something on a few forums to try and help a bit.  I'm also bringing forward an order for some of his bits to help with his cashflow.  If he ripped you off though, that's not cool.
 
Cheers
Jamie
