ok guys, moved to london 7 years ago and had to get rid of all my gear, heartbreaking i know, moved back to georgia 3 months ago and need to get back into things again ( that 7 year itch thing i guess) problem is funds... we bought a house over the net, were told it just needed finishing touches, figured well we can afford 20k for drywall finishing and furnishing, no biggie. got off the plane and came to the house only to find out, no electric (all been ripped out) no water lines, no hvac, and no gas pipes in the house. in short, rather than costing us the 20 we thought it would, it has now cost us our entire 70 savings to get the house liveable ( still dont have bathroom tiles or floors ( just sub flooring atm) . the bastard part is that we called a lawyer to see if we could go after the sellers for not disclosing any of this and having a misleading ad... after a day we got a phone call back telling us there is nothing we can do. apparently the property was government owned and they do not have to disclose anything and can apparently outright lie in order to sell what they want. so i am tapped till dissability comes in ( have been told should be somewhere near january..nice trying to figure out how to live on nothing till then lol. i need my hobby back to keep me sane or i will end up shooting someone here. kitbasher at heart so any donations of bits, no matter how small would be appreciated, spare engine bits, tires, rims, unwanted bodies, frames, seats, anything you dont plan to use i would love to take off your hands.
