I was thinking a $930 contribution would be fitting

The Baron from Rennlist is a true aficionado who owns several 1976-1977 930s and seems like a hell of a nice guy!!!

I'm still thinking about how much I can give... selling old stuff and so on could help.
I'm sure other people are thinking the same and we all hope to bring this to a good and happy end!

OK gents-

We've lost our 'sticky' status, so it's important each of us keeps this alive by posting updates, etc.

We are at $8,605 with 82 participants so far, quite impressive for just over a week's worth of effort!

Jake & I have received some really great PM thoughts from some folks as well which were very cool.

Keep up the great work here gents!

$9,818, just hit after an ohso generous contribution of NINE HUNDRED THIRTY DOLLAHS!!!

_too_damn_cool_

and, I might add - accompanied with the following sentiment:

"When I was looking for a “hobby car”, I thought I wanted a 930, but I kept my options open. The knowledge base of the Pelican forum convinced me that I could perform some maintenance and even low end modifications on these cars. After spending time on Pelican, I realized that not only are there very knowledgeable posters, but it contained a really good group of guys. Mark epitomized why this is one of the best forums on the internet. It it was not for guys like him, I’m not sure I’d be driving a 930. My knowledge is a fraction of most member and I don’t contribute often to the forum. A donation to Mark’s fund will allow me to give a little something back."

Closin in on TEN GRAND, muuffuukkaahhs!!!

There are at least three contributors that must have coconuts swinging - the most recent baller, the guy from Rennlist (The Barron?) and another one a few days ago that made his amount "hidden" but I noticed the total went up about $1K following his shot - WOOOOWWWWWWWWW!

Pelicans,

I haven't been a forum regular in a while. I came here today to get started with research for my project. I was looking forward to plugging back into the community. I'm glad to see that things haven't changed much. Still eager to help one another out. This is really a great thing to see and I'm glad to be back!

Mark,

Sorry man, that is devastating. I can only imagine how upsetting it would be if I were to lose mine. You helped me out in the past, I'm just paying it back. Hope the next one becomes just as special!

What a great way to spend a C Note. Paul, thanks for heading this up. I'd have donated sooner but I just got back from a visit to San Diego and haven't been on here or Rennlist since just after the fire. Knowing about the fire, I was relieved to see my Guards Red baby sitting in my garage, beautiful as ever, upon my return. Fire wasn't my biggest fear though. I had to threaten the life of my 18 yr old nephew who lives with us. Memories of my wayward teenagehood prompted the threats. Matt handled it nicely and my twin turbo was unscathed. Note: my twin turbo has eight wheels; it's my E320 CDI and my 930 combined.
