Click that link and note the time and date of his last post (Sunday, 18th September at 1:10pm). But he passed away last Friday night, the 16th... He states he's 20 years old in that last post, so it isn't his Dad posting in his name. Things just don't add up. :

Hey, I never knew he had a brother that posted under the same name - and I never suggested anything! I assumed his unsername was hijacked or something. There were a number of us wondering about that, so thanks for clearing it up.

Like I said before, my best wishes are with all involved.

Oh dear...
This is a tragedy. I wish you, Kevin and the rest of your family, strength in your time of grief, and offer my assistance in working Josh's car.

My mechanical knowledge is uncomparable to some of the genius who post here, but heck, I'll make coffee for the rest of the guys if it means Josh's car gets completed.

Where abouts are you located?

Thanks for all your support guys, myself and my family greatly appreciate it. The car is going to be a secret project that myself and his younger brother are going to complete, we will probably ask you guys lots of questions about really small things but please humour us with us, but that means no pictures or anything will be put up here before it is finished (sorry guys)
The reason for this tragedy was because he had just broken up with his fiancee and everything just went downhill for him, he told us this through a message he sent to his ex just before this happened.
Yes that is the car he went down to melbourne and bought it then drove it the whole way home.
No there isnt a picture of him on that thread he didnt like pictures but im sure we can find one of him
Again thats for all your support guys, even though you didnt know Josh or his family very well we are very very grateful

I read this post yesterday and had no idea what to say.

Your courage to post something about this is truely amazing, there are alot of people on here that will help you no questions asked.

While im not the best person to be asking for full on mechanical help, I can get genuine parts if there is a need with an employee price, so its alot cheaper than what the spare parts guys tell you.

My condolences and thoughts are with you.

REALLY sorry to hear mate.
I know roughly what you are going through. I have lost a friend that way also. Condolences to you and the family. Best wishes with the car also. I'd be wrapped if my Dad done something like that for me if anything ever happened to me.

Good luck. Like everyone has said here I will help in any way possible as will most if not all people here.

Again sorry to hear.

Condolences to you and your family.

I cant begin to imagine the loss and greif you must be enduring.

On behalf of myself and Nathaniel, the guys who sold your son the car, we are deeply shocked and sincerely sorry for your loss.

If you need any assistance with the build of the car, feel free to email myself and both Nathaniel and I will be more than happy to help.

Michael.
