I just made a deposit to that paypal account and I challenge all Canadian Cobra owners to give a little.
All the best Doug, our thoughts are with you!

By the way, I'm assuming that the spaces aren't supposed to be there.
767Jockey @ gmail.com
Please clarify.

What about the FE forum
DCdoug Doug I need a private pm to mail a check to you.
If you raffle the 482 motor at $20.00 per ticket I want 10.
If you are going to raffle the motor, the FE forum has about 6,000 guys that might want a chance a winning a real nice motor. Something to think about.
New trailer I pick up at 10:00am tomorrow. Just need to know where we are going next???
767 Jockey need a little help for directions and where the car is going to be stored. If you don't mine coming back to NJ I have a spare house you can stay in for a couple of months. 3-6 at this time. You would make a great house sitter and with a car in the garage you have a place to play. Something to think about??? RWH has a great cancer center about 10 minutes from house. Rick L.

Please clarify so some guy with spaces doesn't in his email gets a new Cobra.  |
I left out the spaces on purpose to limit the spam engines from going after this email......guess I should have mentioned that and will correct the original post. Maybe you can edit your post to add a space too?

RickLake brings up a good point. Does one of you regulars over on the FE forum want to post 767Jockey's original message, a short summary of what we are doing and the link to this thread? I only lurk over there and no one would likely know me to trust me.
Rick - I will PM you.

Doug,
I contacted Jamo about a separate link for this effort. Once we discuss and plan details tomorrow morning, I can lay out a specific thread hopefully with a sticky format so that it will not be lost. Once we discuss and lay out specific details, we can have a more structured and perminant approach. Jamo is awaiting a final format.
Ed

Doug, your situation is really sad and I feel for you.
On the other hand, all the people that have stepped up to the plate to not let your dream die is really inspiring.
I'm sending a check today to help out in the efforts. I can't afford much but every little bit helps.
Carl

That sounds like a great idea. See you in the AM.

If You've Never Used PayPal...
It is very easy to do. Just go to www.paypal.com and set up your account with a credit card. Then click on "Send Money" and fill in the boxes. You'll then get this telling you that you did it right. Go there now and send something before you forget, or get sidetracked with something else.

Easy peasy. And worth the 5 min it's going to take you.

Don't worry. We aren't posting any names. If you can't make a donation or contribute to the build effort, please include Doug in your prayers.

Well, I just found this thread today, but I am so full of pride about this Cobra Brotherhood!!!!
I am making a PayPal contribution today. And, I would like to encourage someone in the Houston group to find out how to find Doug (he is probably at MD Anderson), get him in a Cobra and drive for as long as he can stand it. I know there are some great guys in Houston that will do this.
Elmariachi....why don't you make this happen. I would be happy to do it but I am 6 hours away.
The outpouring of support is touching...enough to make a grown man cry.

I am already on it. I have been emailing Doug this week and not only are we going to drag his ass out in my Hurricane, he has to come over my way for some Texas music and cold beer. We had been threatening this since he moved here last year but I have been busy commuting to Austin for work. And if he's around we'll get him to come with us for the Operation Comfort charity fundraiser in September.

That's GREAT. I am not surprised that you are already on it.
Thanks

dcdoug, et. al.,
As you know I am just one of the guys that have offered to help finish building 767Jockey's Cobra. He has told me what needs to be done, a lot of finishing, but not that technical.
I don't have the faintest idea who, if anyone he has decided on to finish His Cobra if at all yet. If I still had my trailer I'd zip over east and get it for him, but I can't. So...., if he decides to send it West and someone can get it to say...PA. Ohio border I could meet them and bring it the rest of the way then reverse the trip when it is finished.
Depending on what he decides to do?

Doug,
I just got back from back-to-back trips to Tanzania and Mexico or I would have written sooner. (You can tell by the jet-lag time of this post )
Kirkham would love to throw some parts into the pile for you. I imagine your FE could use a few parts to make the engine compartment shine. Turkey pan? Pulleys? Alternator bracket? All of the above? Something else? We make lots of parts.
Just let us know. Happy to help,
David

I am hoping that we can have two sticky threads up with the details soon for a good fundraiser. Jamo was out yesterday but will be back today. Hopefully this can be up today or tomorrow.
Just another thought, . . . If the fundraiser is highly successful, and we raise more money that needed for parts and other completion "stuff", I am thinking that some of the excess funds go to DV and others who will have contributed their time and effort fo complete the build. Just a thought.
Ed
