Great, now you've got even more people hatin', ...
Yea, ya miss the brother, but what's the point of your stupid ******* message, ..., Ya have more fancy cars handed to ya.
That's your concern?!? "Oh no, my brother was killed, now I have more cars to take care of."
IMO, ridiculous to even post this note other than to rub it in even more.
Grow up. Get a life.
(Okay, ... Sorry for your brother's passing.) There, Better?!?

No offense man, but lately I could see why one would be a little skeptical about your post and the way you presented it!
Who was your brother? Name, Rank, Mos,Stationed? PM me if youd like!

I can't imagine how you feel. I'm sure both your Dad and your brother would be glad to know that you're the one with they cars now. You can't bring them back, but you can remember them whenever you're driving their cars. Just remember that they'll always be their cars, and keep them nice in their memory.

I'm not jealous at all.
It's the point of his message. Read it again.
It appears there is more concern to tell everyone about how he has now received more cars.
Big deal on the cars, ..., I would think the brother means more than anything, ...
Yea, I'm the *****.

I agree. When I lost my father, the last thing I was concerned about telling people was "what was left to me". It shouldn't really even be a point of discussion, IMO. At that point all I cared about discussing was the greif, not the extra things that I suddenly owned.

Hey man don't let these guys bring you down. I'm sure your Brother and Father would like you to enjoy the cars they left behind. These people are treating you as if your celebrating their deaths because they left you behind some nice things. But like you said you would give them back in a second to get your family back.

i dunno, some of you guys need to get a reality check. if i lost 2 people dear to me i prolly wouldn't be in the best "state" and he probably misworded what he meant. who would have a clear head after something like that happened?! Sorry about your 2 losses and some of the "people" posting crap and talking ****, just like your relatives. If i were in your shoes i would either sell a couple cars and keep the most memorable and let them sit in the garage as a momento. and the reason he probably only mentions the cars is because this is a "car" site and he could "relate" to some people. have some ******* sympathy

I'm truly sorry to hear about your brother and dad. That really sucks that your family is giving you a hard time too. I think that fixing the vette up how your brother wanted would help you keep a positive attitude. I know that if my dad were to die tomorrow and left me his 1970 Chevelle SS, that I would restore it in remembrance of him. You could do some kind of an In remembrance of painting or something on the car. I hope things turn up for you.
