Same time I met him.

He got diagnosed just a few months later and has been fighting ever since. I just hope he's still got some gas in the tank.


Same here.

He's good kid and I pray he pulls through.


same time that I met Brad -- he picked me up at LAX in Henry's DC, hung out with each other the whole weekend...

this whole ordeal has just numbed me down...

Life is like the slow drags....everyone is creeping towards the finish line, and nobody wants to get there first. I hope Brad can somehow slow down his ride.

Brad is a great guy. I meet him for the first time in Phoenix. It was great to sneak him into that bar. He was so stoked when Norcalnik bought us the first pitcher. Good memories for sure.

It is good to see how many friends he has pulling for him.

Yep, my first time meeting Brad was at LAX in the DC too. Fun times blowing the horn through the tunnel.

Brad's a great guy and I hope he can make it through.

I've known B-Rad (what i always called him) for five years met him through the local vw scene. I've been fortunate enough to spend alot of time with him and have alot of laughs with him. My family and Ginger are pulling for you B-Rad!!!

for his birthday in 2007, a handful of us shaved our heads so he wouldn't be the only bald fuck out there:







anybody else have pics of this?

Damit, I just saw him last month at BOR and he looked better than I had seen him in the last few years.

You will forever be in my thoughts and prayers mi amigo.

vw62rag Wed Dec 16, 2009 5:58 pm

i never got a chance to meet him, i was hoping too, but he would often terrorize me in the chat. lol

long time ago
i needed a lugnut insert made for my cosmics and he said he might be able to make me one, so i sent it to him and he realized he couldnt make it. so i asked him to send it back, in the mean time i had found someone to make me some, he never sent me the cosmic insert back so i would screw with him in chat and say he hasent sent it back cuz he loves me and he wears it on a necklace. it was a good laugh.

prayin for ya

Brad, I'm pullin for you. When I came out to California in 06, thanks for taking the time to let me cruise around with you, even if we did have to push start it! HAHAH!! And once again man, thanks for the trip to Hooters. As with everyone else on here, best wishes to you and your family, I know you can take whatever gets thrown your way.

I love Brad, he will always have a place in my heart and in my car as my shifter for the 53 came from him

No I got the stock shifter out of his car, probably took it out when he replaced it with the one you sold him.

williamblanda Wed Dec 16, 2009 6:25 pm

This is absolutely horrible. I hope he pulls through it.

You're in our hearts, Brad. Sending prayers and dreams for a world without cancer your way...

Those look like the headlights he got from me.

Glenn Wed Dec 16, 2009 6:38 pm

I rebuilt the distributor for it.
