Next month (Sept. 17 & 18) we're having our 15th annual Crusie 'N' Car Show. Proceeds go to the Adopt A Child's Smile program. It helps low income families get dental care for their kids. Last year we gave 'em $1200. and they were thrilled!
Fri nite is a cruise thru town followed by a street dance with live music. Sat is the show. Goodie bags, dash plaques, door prizes, 50/50 drawings and live music. Ya know, the usual mainstream car show. We usually have a couple hundred cars attend.
Ok, so I'm asking for donations for door prizes. A cool pinstriped panel perhaps or any cool artwork. Most anything would be appreciated and doesn't have to be big or costly. These will be door prizes (unless I get something REALLY cool and then I might auction it off)
If you can help, great, send me a PM. If not, that's ok. I'm sure some of you get hit up all the time for free stuff.

I got a brand new Carter Mechanical fuel pump for SBC, would you be able to use that? Let me know.
A pretty darn good excuse to miss the shindig at my place, too, I might add! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Donzie I can come up with something - maybe a steering wheel or column or some carbs!

A steering wheel would be awesome! But, beggers can't be choosers so I'll take whatever I can get.
Anyone have discount coupons for Madam Zelda's House Of Pleasure? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Why don't you auction off that Chevy that Kustombuilder just finished for you? Now that would bring in a few bucks. He didn't finish it yet you say. Oh well, I guess the kids can wait till next year. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The cruise is Friday nite. The cars line up downtown at the bottom of Ashman St. (just off Main St) beginning at 5pm. The cruise starts at 7. Come back and park on Main St and the band starts at 8.
Sat. is the show, also on Main St. Top 50 Awards plus special awards (Best Chevy, Best Paint, etc). Live music all day. Plenty of food vendors.
I'll need the prizes for Sat.

Just checked with Madam Zelda and she said there is no need for discount coupons. When you show up just say "Donzie sent me" and she will bill him direct. She says he comes in so often that she already gives him the discount rate and feels obligated to do her part to help out the kids.

Ray, thanks, it's greatly appreciated, as well as everyone else who has offered up goodies. If I put this stuff up for auction I'm gonna go broke!!
Frank, Zelda says you still owe her 50 bucks and I should collect it for her.

Just a reminder, this show's coming up in a couple of weeks,
if you were planning on donating something.
For those who have, and you know who you are, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I'd better have a wad of cash with me, 'cause I'm sure I'll be bidding on some of this stuff myself! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
