I'm still around for a little while today then I have to leave until late tonight. The amount of money you can donate is not as important as the action you take to do it. All your efforts will be rewarded. Wait until Brad see's this! If the admins want to post the progress of the funds that's fine. If not they are holding the info for a reason. Support them. Support this cause.

Way to go guys. I can enjoy my coffee and donuts for a few minutes. We can have our own vitual tote board if everyone just lets us know there are in. Don't need to know how much, just join us and let us and Brad know that you were there when it really mattered. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)

I've been watching with interest and I have been thinking - does someone who doesn't know me, nor me him, want my help? I don't know, but if it were the other way around (regardless of the circumstances) I think I would want his.

So, I gave to the fund. I consider it a payment for services rendered by 914Club, and it's founder, for all of the free advice, help, and entertainment I recieved since coming here.

I'm with you fellows on this. Cash is very tight, but I've already Paypaled a contribution.
I can offer one of my 'vented rear caliper kits <> see the resources section" at $100 off and $100 to the Brad Bail Fund.

Well, money is really tight for me right now but I had a balance in my PayPal account of 20.00 so I just donated it. If you knew how broke I really was right now you would find a way to donate something to at least match it. Come on guys, he really did do a lot for us in creating this Club. I first met Brad 3 years ago out at Dunkles. This Club has been a lot of fun for me and I am sure many others. The get togethers we have and the resources that come from here cannot be found anywhere else. Chip in what you can. Lets make him proud.


Anyone get a total yet?

Thank you so much!!! Guys, I have 5 children, 1 in college and you must know what a family that size in Massachusetts needs to keep going. But, the first thing I thought about this morning was, I wonder how Brad is? I wonder what it is going to take to raise his bail. You know what, we are going to do that TODAY. Monday, the funds will be there to SET BRAD FREE! I know that we can accomplish that together. Keep 'em coming!!!

This will just keep rolling. One day soon, Brad will read this thread and know in his deepest heart how many lives he has touched and how many friends (some never met, some he has never talked to) he has. Family and friends (and we are the 914 family here) that is the best life has to offer. Judged by his friends, Brad is a tremendous sucess in life.

When I first got into 914s, there were practically no resources available at all. My best guide was the exploded diagrams in the old AA catalog. Then along came the internet with the World Wide Web and I eventually discovered Pelican Parts with their tech articles, and Yahoo Groups, then Rennlist. All of these helped a lot towards getting me going with things.

But when 914World.com got started it REALLY changed things for me. This is a place that is filled with generous, giving folks who have helped me immensely. Chief among these is Brad - whom I have never met in person, but who has helped with advise in addition to all he has done just to get this whole madhouse rolling to begin with.

I donated yesterday, I may be back in again if I can. The value of what I can donate could never match up to the value of Brad or this board that he created.

So if you haven't donated yet, shame on you. "No man is an island" as it's said. We've all gotten where we are with the help of others - it's time for all of us to step up and help Brad when he needs it, and he needs it big time.

Even if you've only posted 1 post to this board just to list a car for sale, you've benefited from Brad's efforts. It's time to pay back and then some.

DONATE NOW! (If you are in Chicago, think of it like voting - Donate early, and often)

Guys and Gals: every time I check back and another one or two of us have stepped up to the line, I just smile and say: "This is for you Brad. Your friends are here. We will be here - all the way, until this is over, not just at the beginning, but at the end and beyond." When I am finished with my restoration one day I want to drive my 914 to Kalifornia and shake your hand and I will be really proud of my small part in helping you. This is the place to be counted today. Don't miss your name among those here. Roll Call!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/type.gif)

That made me think of something, Many of you know Brad and have met him, many of you have not. He may not have even helped you directly in person or on the phone. He created this site however and has pushed for us to be a community. If you have ever been helped by a member of this group, free parts, discount parts, advice or whatever it may be, then you owe it to yourself and this community to ante up what ever you can. I for one would really like to get this taken care of and move on and get back to the cars and get togethers and just general fun like we normally have. Lets go guys and gals, cough it up and lets do this.
