I'm in the "planning" phase of building a 914.
The price is something I didn't want to pass up on and didn't want to be in a situation that I'd have to wait a year or so for another group buy. Wes |

Gentlemen,
Just a friendly reminder that the scheduled deadline to have your payments here for this particular group buy is slightly less than a week away (December 14th +/-) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) 6 payments have been received to date - with 2 more, purportedly in the mail ... we still need at least 2 more to meet the minimum qualifying number (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

I've got a request;
Prior to sending AA the spread sheet with shipping address's, could you send a copy out to everybody (that are in on it), in order to verify that their shipping address's is correct. (ya, I worry way too much) You could edit out everything except for the person getting it, but it should come from the master copy. Wes |

I already thought about doing that Wes, and thats a definate yes for those who actually provided me with their e-mail addresses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)
I 'copied and pasted' the contact info directly from e-mails or PMs onto the Excel spreadsheet to avoid mistakes like transposing #s and all, but double verification would be a good idea, thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) It would be easier if I could just send out one e-mail and include all participants in the distribution, so if anybody participating in this buy has heartburn with any of the other participants knowing their address or phone #, etc., let me know and I'll mask your information on the spreadsheet if its absolutely necessary. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) Another deadline reminder ... today is Wednesday, December 12th. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

AZ914;
No metal working skills? No problem. Here is a link to a page where it's shown how to duct tape them on. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=flare&st=0 The good thing is that they are removable so that you can return your car stock. Wes |

OK ... unless you can hand me a CASH (or equivalent) payment before I sent a check off to George (on 12/26 or 12/27) we're officially closed on this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Drawing a line in the sand for the cut-off date was probably the hardest part of organizing this buy for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/behead.gif) Hope you're not too disappointed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) I think most of the participants were desirous of having the flares in their possession prior to Christmas ... it just took a bit longer than we originally thought to get 10+ confirmed and paid for (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) From the initial interest that this one drew in just 2 months, I think another buy in a couple of months would probably be very do-able. There are potentially 6 guys and 7 sets on the unofficial 2008 list as of today ... gathering up a several more shouldn't be that difficult (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I'll coordinate with George on that issue when I finalize the deal on this one. Thanks for all your interest |

Does anybody know of a good body shop in SoCal with experience fitting the flares? I would be interested in buying in on the next round.

No super big rush, been working my butt off the last coupla weeks...and the snow puts a hampering on any desire to drive! ....although I am going to go look at a certain Evel Kneivel mobile on friday....he is struggling to get the 2.0 out of it, might strike a deal if I pull it for him! |

I'm thinking about enrolling in a welding class ... would like to tackle the project myself. I haven't welded anything in over 15 years, so I think need a refresher course (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Post your question as a new topic ... probably get way more response. |
