Default Help a Guy Out

Looking for donations and trying not to use the 'cancer scam' if I can help it.

Of course the $77,350 in taxes will be another beg_a_thon later.

Thanking all in advance.

No, Danny..... This is a very special CGT. The Gemballa upgrade is worth more than $300k USD! http://www.supercars.net/cars/3147.html

Ahh, the "upgrades"...

I've always found Uwe's craft way over the top. In the sense of taking a perfectly nice car, and tarting it up so that the end result is less than what he started with. Definitely expensive and exclusive, but that's about it. Gemballa is no Ruf...

Best,

Matt

And that's why it's been sitting there for a year unsold.

Couldn't agree more....I have yet to see a Gemballa product that I like more than the original product. By the way, has he shown up yet or is he still missing?

His company was wound up at the end of May with assets going towards *some* of his tax bill. Had 1M Euro wired to SA by his wife just before he 'disappears'. I think I'd have a real tight leash put on Mrs. Gemballa as well as her passport under lock and key...

Easy guys...... I didn't say that the finished product was better than the original....just that someone spent a lot of dough to have it "upgraded."
