booohyeaahh!!!

saweeet!!!!

CHACHING!!!!

thanks Garold!

FANTASTIC!!!

Yup, he's a member, just joined a day or so ago. Jeff said they expect to complete a car from start to finish in 16 weeks. Right now they are beadblasting but want to try a dipped tub soon. They are doing both air and watercooled -6s. The work will be done in the LA area. They have current customers who expects to sell some of these cars to. I didn't tell him that WE were all CHEAP SOBs. But he thinks some of the super rich crowd he has worked with already would love a car with the right platform for 1/2 the cost (vs. GT40 Replicas and Panteras, etc...) I'm not sure if they even have a 914 right now.


Garold, did you get any more info from him?

I plan on a field trip to the GT40 factory with our PCA chapter. I'll keep you informed.

Holey Moley! Just think of the discussions that will be had!!!!


Hell, they should hire Brad!!!





M

No word from Jeff today . I did email him pics of teh awards & shirt designs so he could see what I was talking about. I will give him a a week and follow up with him to get a firm yes or no and the $$.

Haggerty Insurance -

I called them yesterday and they are not able to be a $$ sponsor this year, but would like too next year. I received a package from them today with pens & 50ish real nice goodie bags. Sean, I know you said that we can get the goodie bags from the tourist board (whatever they are called) down there but I think we have more than enough.
I didn't ask for these, I guess Christina felt bad that they couldn't help this year. Let me know if you want to use them.

Jeff paid for his hats today. I sent him a little note. He is excited to be sponsoring the event. I have faith

Garold,
I was CC'd on the email from Jeff to you. Do you have an agreement, or do we need to make one?

I don't have one. We need to make up one, but I have never done something like this before. Any ideas?

This is the list of Sponsors that I have now. Am I missing any confirmed Sponsors?

The Tire rack has signed up for door prizes. They don't do cash Sean you should a package at your door in a few weeks. And yes Sean, they will email you the correct format for their logo.

Garold,
I received your package today. Nice bags from Hagerty.
Too bad Pelican cheaped out, huh?

yeah, I guess they are to busy with book deals
O'well screw them, I wouldn't put them on the shirt, they really didn't seem interested in doing this.

O'Daniel Porsche in FT Wayne is willing to donate a door prize.

Hey guys lets go ahead and announce our presenting sponsor. We need more chatter about the FFC on the site! I will call Jeff today and get this paypal stuff taken care of.

Thanks Doug!

Sean, have you received any door prize items yet from Tire rack or Kwiklift? Also do you still need their logos ina EPS format?

edit: what O'daniels?

The only stuff I have received has been from:
James Adams - J West Eng
Craig Laughlin - Camp914
Pelican = through garold
Hagerty = through garold
NapCo - GWN7

nothing from anyone else.

what, what about O'Daniel Porsche?

The only logo I need is from James - Morphenspectra and an approval from Brad M oh and info from Paragon that Doug mentioned.

I need spell check. I was asking if you received any thing from them yet?

nope, not a thing.

Looks like Mid America (aka Tweeks) will be a vendor also They are going to send a door prize and some stuff for the goodie bags to Sean.

I also called Tire Rack again and they said you should have a door prize in a week or so Sean.

Danny at Kwiklift was not there and no one seemed to know about this so.... I will keep trying

I will bring my stuff, unless you really need it now.

M

You're fine Mark, it was Mueller & Morphenspectra that I was speaking to...

morphenspectra logo

Garold,

Brad said HPH wants to send $.

Can you email him the info to brad@914world.com ?

thanks

Now you've got to make room for them on the back of the shirt too...

Mo money, Mo money, Mo money....for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation

Email sent.

MSDS Inc. has signed on as a door prize sponsor.
Maltese Falcon (Marty ?) is the owner and they will be sending a trunk shock kit.
I told him it was too late to get on the shirt, but he was ok with that.

I received a $30 check from Brad Mayuer for his registration to the FFC. Are we expecting sponsors that attend to pay the registration fee? Brad did give us $50 to sponsor plus he is going to donate a door prize. So do we keep the $$ or give it back?

give it back.

hell, I dunno.

I have changed my mind and I think we should keep it. This is a charity event. Any objections?

nope

Agreed. Its for charity. Maybe we won't hound sponsors, but certainly don't push it away.

Damn - you guys are good!

Sean - hows the $$ situation now?

And - how many door prizes have we got?

Garold,
have you heard from HPH regarding sponsorship?

Garold & Doug,
I'm working on a sponsor info sheet.

Can you send me contact info for all the vendors/sponsors that you have dealt with?


Thanks

Jason @ Paragon Products is the only one that I was able to get support from.

I talked with Rick at CB Performance - he had a low level of interest, I should have pursued this one a little more.

Parts obsolete - Gary. He had some initial interest and then later said that he had already spent his limit for these types of activities for the year. Could try next year.

Bob Farmer - Farmer Porsche. He stated that he no longer supports these activities. He does not see a return for his support.

Mittelmotor - I do not have the contact name here at home. I have it at work and can provide it if you want it.

Thanks Doug,

I guess I shoulda said "that are working with us".

So, Paragon is the only one of those that is participating. I've got their info, so we're good to go.
