QUOTE (DEATH @ Feb 10, 2014 - 12:07 PM)  Thanks richee3 for making this post. I was still trying to find the words. I think flowers is a great idea. I know his mother would appreciate them the most. Ill make sure she gets them. I still don't really have the words. He was my brother, my best friend and my partner with the cars. I don't know what I'm going to do without him. He helped me a couple times via PMs. Extremely patient and kind. I am in for flowers // memorial. Who ever heads it up please PM me who to send to. We cry because we miss him.... We smile and laugh as we celebrate his life with us... God Bless the family of Stephen Rest In Peace I wonder if he & Stambo are discussing v-6 and turbo power advantages..?.... |

QUOTE (NgoFcukinWay @ Feb 10, 2014 - 5:34 PM) Matt, would you be interested in getting together and finishing up his V6 swap? Maybe see if the forum members will be interested in helping with that as well? I considered seeing what I could do to help finish it up but only if it's what his family and his wife would want. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

I'm willing to bet people around here would be willing to pitch in parts if we also used the project for logging notes to sticky for those wanting to do the same later. I've got some I'd be willing to send. -------------------- proud =3sgte SWAPPED= '95 Celica ST owner [calling it the GT2 or half-trac]

As for anyone wanting to donate for flowers, I can start accepting contributions then forward the money as necessary. There is no set amount and absolutely no obligation. I will not share with anyone else who contributed or how much. If like to put an order in tomorrow so I will pay for everything up front and will only accept up to how much the flowers cost and no more.
If you are interested, PM me for Paypal information. Again, there is absolutely no obligation. The arrangement will be from all of us here on the forum. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

Taken from DEATH on Facebook:
QUOTE Thanks Jonathan. I've already made plans to finish his build for him. The car is running but lacking an axle. If Art or Manny or Kurt or Cam knows what axle setup I need to run an e153 with LSD that would help out a whole lot. I'm still on s54 so IDK which axle to use. If I'm not mistaken they are a hybrid of two different axles.
Any help with that would be greatly appreciated. I intend to give the car to his brother so he can carry on his legacy. I think that's what Stephen would have wanted and his mother agrees with me. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
