Sn4K33Y3z, you’re joking, right? No one can possibly be SO BOLD as to come on this forum and beg for money to rebuild their engine!!

My engine destroyed itself over a year ago and my car is still sitting in my garage, engine-less. The bill for the rebuild? $7,000.00! I am not a rich man. I originally paid for my car with the money I made while deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. How am I paying for the engine rebuild?? I AM SAVING MY MONEY and will just have to wait until I have it before my car will be back on the road!

These cars are near and dear to all of us on this forum, but I doubt that they are anyone’s daily driver – They are a LUXURY!

Quit begging and do like the rest of us: SAVE YOUR MONEY and PAY YOUR OWN WAY!!

Default Tried to do the donation thing

Clicked on the website link to check it out, and guess what? You can't put in less that $2! And I was gonna give my 2 cents worth. So I guess I gotta do it here. Don't post often, but this one just begs for a response. I guess it takes a giant sized pair of cojones to ask for money here for this. May not be against the rules, but it sure is in bad taste and cheeky to the max. Do you guys suppose we will see this car for sale here soon?

Some of the posters on the gofundme.com actually are kinda worthy. The OP's post is not. He didn't even come up with a hard luck story.

Fully agree.

I haven't heard of anybody asking for money to rebuild their car.

As others have said, your car is a luxury, not a necessity.
Sell off some other stuff, get a second job, get a higher paying job, hell why not put a red light out front?

To come onto a public forum begging is showing immaturity and no common sense towards your fellow car enthusiast.

EVERYBODY I know EARNS their own way.
