1/22/20 Update….
All packages have been shipped. I upgraded some to Priority Mail so most should see them by Friday. International shipments may take longer. Sorry.
It was fun making this stuff, I hope all winners chime in with photos…I have an extra-large “914” embossed leather/canvas overnight bag for the best photo.
Until next time….

As a relatively recent member of this community, who has a job with enough downtime that I find myself browsing the World on a regular basis, I have noticed an obvious pattern here. This Oscar person (whom I have never met but hope I will one day) seems to be everywhere with a solution to every problem. Offering to rescue people on the side of the road, tracking down a part, imparting wisdom, making an apt comment in a thread, and the list goes on. So, Oscar, let's turn the tables here and see what you want! I challenge you to post a wish list and if there is anything on it that I have I will send it to you, postage paid, and with something extra added. Let's see what you have on your holiday wish list!!!
Happy Holidays. not an offical entry , just like posting stuff

Well...I wasn't going to reply to this generous offer, cuz it was offered to the "50 States"....and British Columbia is not yet the "51st".
BUT
I see some wanker in the U.K., presumably because his homeland used to "own" the original of those 50 States, figured he/she would qualify (and apparently did), so I will throw this at the wall and see if it sticks...

With this list now I know what states to ignore when I retire because it has not 914’s.
Missed the deadline but no one from Alabama responded. There are a few of us here but I usually only read 914 stuff on weekends.
If you might accept a late entry, I have a '74 Alaska Blue Metallic L96B with Marathon Blue Metallic L96M negative Porsche stripe with a 2.0L (2056). sizes XL and 9 1/2.

The mail just showed up at my house and WOW....what a nice package from Oscar.
Thanks so much for making it a 914 holiday all year!
Taking a shot of my size 11 will be a challenge....going to have to get my spouse involved...
THANKS OSCAR!!!
Oscar,
I am blown away by your generosity, thank you! I have just received a fantastic top with 914 world on it, socks, a coastwr and key fob and they are all fantastic quality.
Thank you for such a brilliant gift package,

Oscar for PRESIDENT!!!
Just received your holiday care package gift. Outstanding. I'm sure all of us winners are very appreciative. I too was wondering about the shoe size, lol.
The hoodie, key fob, coaster, zip up bag and socks are great, all in green to boot, except the socks of course.
I will wear them all proudly.
Thanks again Oscar.
Mike
Thank you Oscar very kind of you.
Oscar, you are Da man! Thank you very much!~ right back at you. Jim
Well looks like I don't get to wear these....I was trying to take a picture of them and she said ...these will go nice with my morning coffee!
THANKS OSCAR...So Cool!
Wow! Thanks again Oscar! What an amazing gesture. I look forward to attempting to find something nearly as cool to send back your way.
Yes Oscar is so generous to all of us here!
Thanks again sir and God bless you and your family!
Well received this from him personally on a different occasion last month!
Thanks Oscar! I echo all the other comments, this was so unexpected and very appreciated. My daughter stole the socks, we're still arguing about the rest.
And a happy New Year ! thank you for including me !!
Oscar thank you very much for your generosity, love all the thoughtful gifts! They will be treasured for many years! May your generosity come back to you 10 fold!

Thank you Oscar, your generosity is without limits. My wife loves the socks also
Oscar, your generosity is quite humbling. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!

Oscar,
I am stunned and speechless!! What a great surprise. My wife is SO jealous, especially of the shirt (there is a strong possibility that I will lose that struggle).
Thank you again for your kindness!
Danny
Oscar, Thank you so much for your generosity. Your talents are greatly appreciated!
I've also lost the "Battle of the Socks" but a small price to pay for Christmas in January from a Santa Claus I've never met. Thanks so much, Oscar, for bring belated holiday joy to so many of us.

Hey Dr-
As a previous customer on my bumper GB thread, I think I have TWO "50th" hats with your name. A khaki and a dark brown, they should complement your car nicely. Plus I'll throw in one of my 50 State Giveaway T shirts.
PM your shirt size and address.
In return, please donate $30 to @http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=179 and we're good.
Let's help support this community.

Thanks Oscar - what can I say that hasn't been said. You da man. Me and my 914 appreciate all the goodies. Picture to follow.
Received my package on Friday. A very nice assortment of 914 swag. Thank you Oscar!
My Oscar stuff arrived monday this week! I was surprised how many items there were!
I'd like to suggest that each state send something state specific/unique in return to Oscar.
Want a dirty politician? thats all we have here.
Hoping to come up with a worthy picture for you Oscar,
Thank you again!

Guys...we're not done. 7 packages have not been delivered yet.
I have leftovers that I will make available in the next week or so.
I remain hopeful someone will chime in from unclaimed states.
In all seriousness....thank for the compliments but I do this to spread SMILES.
I don't ask or expect anything in return.
Stay tuned.....
Oscar
