Big Shout Out to Pelicans

I just want to shout out a big thanks to the Porsche owners on this forum. I will not mention the item or his name, but, a fellow Porsche owner was discarding an item that has some value on the used market. I asked him about selling the item(s) to me and he sent them to me for free. When I tried to get in touch with him about at least sending him the money to ship the item(s) - he would not return my PM - even though he quickly returned my PM's when we were coordinating the exchange.

You know who you are and I just want to say thanks and remind everyone on here how lucky we are to have this community. Also, big thanks to Wayne for providing the forum.

Sincerely,

Ray

Yep, there are some great folks on here.

I got free part too once and it has some very significant value - I was dead in the water without it.

The information I have gotten here has saved me time and time again from either serious issues or spending a ton of money I didn't have to. I know a lot of other people who own eclectic or unique old Non Porsche's and none of them have a community like this. I know a few guys that can get 2 or 3 other people for a drive in what ever car they have, last thanksgiving thanks to this forum we had more than 30 people through out the day attend our Hawks Nest run it was a great time. Thank you Wayne and every one here you have created some thing truly special.

Regards
Dave

This has happened to me, as well.

And a big shout out to Ray, because I know for certain that he'll be paying it forward in the future, as well!

Have a great spring, everyone!
