I passed out and landed on the floor with about 40 seconds left to go. Must've been the mask Carlos suggested I wear, just in case.

Mark wins the award for the lowest most epic contribution of 2 dollars... taking it down from $930 to $928!



First thing on my list for tomorrow is to head up to Jerome's house and plead apologetically to his lovely wife... and kindly ask if she would take him off death row.

My most gracious thank you to everyone involved, and all who contributed to the success of this chapter of the project!

Looks like I have some work to do....

Jim, that was just a little late night melodrama. I have been married to a wonderful woman for 34 years and I've owned 928s for 21 of those years. Besides we each have our own - equally funded - discretionary accounts for just such occasions.

The response of this community has been overwhelming and I am happy to be a part of it. Now you can focus your energy on getting through the next phase.

Congratulations on keeping the project moving. Can't wait to see some before and after pics of the final products on their cars. Good luck and keep us updated. Great show of support from the 928 community. Gotta love it!!!!

Way to go Jim, one hurdle down with sights set on the next! It will be a rewarding finish line once you cross it. Keep on pushing to reach your dream.

And Jerome, thanks again for getting me off my butt (some others, too, I'll bet)!
