Default Big Thanks to Si74

I know this place has become very quiet since i first joined and it seems the whole "Ford" scene has changed a lot over the years but its good to know there are still a few of us out there keen to help each other out.

I asked for some help with some small parts (Brake line clips) and Si74 replied saying he has some and posted them out for free to me. Even better they are in really good condition. All these parts are becoming so hard to find and RS tax on Ebay is killing the whole scene in my opinion so thought its worth just posting a quick thanks!

I have done the same in the past and i am sure others still do!

Thanks again pal, big help!

The RS tax did beckon briefly.. just joking, glad to be of help and of you ,taking the trouble to say thanks! Once shipped a whole Mk 1 anti roll bar set up to Wales, free gratis on the basis he paid me the courier cost. Never heard from him again. Not normally that dense but was amazed at the work and effort he had put into his car, it was something special.

Si74 Good on you for helping out a fellow RS enthusiast and not becoming another selfish, greedy seller with no conscience! I did the same thing a few years back when I was given free of charge a big box of various Saff parts. They helped out a lot of people in the UK and even one in the US and one in Greece.All I asked was they paid for shipping and made a donation to Marie Curie Cancer Care.There was no way I would have sold the parts for profit as it would not have seemed right to me.

Can someone send me a free rear bumper ha ha.

Nice to see there are still people willing to help. I think as prices of parts go up people are scared to help other people out incase they cant get the same parts for themselves again.
