Ok....so is it an auction or a sale price or msrp or what?
I'm trying to figure this out...(little slow!). Lol

[bret]

ridetech will put up a pair of SA coilovers for this project. Albert...you need to clarify if this is a sale or an auction, and exactly how to purchase, and exactly where the money is going, and who is administering it. I know you have those details, Also know you're on the road right now on the way back from Cali...

[Bryce]

I will donate or buy. Let me know the details.

[Larry Callahan]

Albert is on the road and running on little sleep. I spoke to him on the phone a few minutes ago and here is how he says it goes.

Reply to this thread the amount you would like to donate for said item. The person with the highest bid or offer on December 22nd at 9am Pacific time wins the item and a family in need wins as well.

Shortly Albert will post the details on where to send the donation for the items after the close or if you would rather just make a donation he will post a paypal address up soon.

[OLDFLM]

$150 on the hood! Might have to change up the Freedombird!

[SOLICIT]

More details on the recipients please. During the process of continually educating our two teens this year on the true meaning of Christmas, we all agreed it would be cool to give outside of the family. (my kids are so awesome) We are far from wealthy, but live comfortably enough to have more wants than needs. Sadly, the same isn't true for MANY in our country these days. We will still have stocking stuffers to open on Christmas day for ourselves, but the point is to take part in fulfilling the purpose of the person for which we celebrate Christmas.

Anyway, we've been struggling with how best to determine who to help. With some details on the recipients, I could speak to my family and see what they think. It would be nice if you would give some sort of feedback once you've blessed this family, so people like me can show our kids the positive impact they had by being a part of this.

Sure wish there were some 2G TA/Firebird parts to bid on. ....hint hint Carbon Kustoms.

I have 4 kids and there's nothing cooler than seeing their faces on Christmas morning. I'd hate for any kid to miss out on that.

I would also like to donate something to be bid on- A lot of you guys have asked me about doing a project rendering, here's your chance to get one for a great deal. I normally charge $349 for a one view rendering, I'll do one for the highest bidder, no minimum bid. This can be either of a car that's being built or for one that's already done. For your bid you get an original rendering of your car printed on glossy photo paper mounted to a black 16x20" matte board ready for framing. This will also include design help and revisions for projects in the works.

To keep with the spirit of this event I want all the money to go to this family, so those of you who have already hired me cannot bid unless I'm doing a different rendering than what we're already working on.

For those not familiar with my work here's a link to a few samples...
