@valcooscar

Just got home from a long weekend away and I find I’ve gotten a gift from Oscar. I really appreciate your kindness and spirit of 914ism.

Oscar’s a special breed for sure!
It’s WAY Beyond his generosity.
He is CARING and KIND .My sister recently had a stroke and is in really bad shape and I’m a wreck .
Oscar has been there for me more than my lifetime friends.
Encouraging me and giving me hope. Guiding me with advice. He is as genuine as they come . Thank you Oscar ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) I can’t thank you enough!

Oscar is like the 914 Saint looking over us and doing a lot of good for many of us. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) He's been a good friend to me in the short time that I've known him. I think a lot of you can say the same. You'd have made a good Mason Oscar. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I just have to jump in here and say Oscar cost me a bunch of money... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

Because of Oscar, I'm out somewhere around a Grand. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)









So here's the story, a while back I started a thread about the project 914 my oldest son and I are building.
Just a typical build thread. AKA, I bought a non-running 914 and it is going to be found on jack stands by paleontologists in the year 2002019.

A couple days later on a Friday the trouble starts. I get a PM from Oscar offering me a free transmission for the project. The nerve of that guy offering me a free transmission. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
The real trouble starts when he says I can have it if I pick it up at his house. So I walk into the other room and tell my wife that I will be gone the next day(Saturday) as I have to drive to LA to pick up a transmission. Whoo Hoo, Road Trip, I live in Phoenix. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Although they had never met, I think my wife and Oscar were in cahoots. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
My wife, being of sharp mind and good memory says, to me, "Remember a couple weeks ago when we talked about taking the boys out to Universal Studios? If you are going out to LA, why don't we all go and spend a day at Universal Studios."

So next thing you know, my "free transmission" is costing me hotel, food, and five tickets to Universal Studios. There is no such thing as a free lunch or free transmission.



I hope the smiley's clued you all in that this story was all in good fun. I think the trip did end up costing around a grand all told but it was money very well spent.

My wife, boys and I had a great trip, we had a blast at Universal Studios, we did get a free transmission that is very greatly appreciated, and we got to spend some time with the man himself. We hung out at Oscar's house for a while checking out his cars and his GARAGE! I put that in CAPS because I am so jealous. He has a great garage.

I recently bought a harness bar from him and it came with some surprise gifts. My son will be carry around the 914 keys on the key fob but I am keeping the hat. Thanks Oscar!!

He truly is a great guy. All of us in the 914 community are blessed to have him and I am honored to know him.

Well, as they say, nothing free is ever really free...

My wife claimed the Porsche crest key fob. I asked what that was for? She said “Macan GTS.” I said, sell your Bimmer... she grinned.
