Hello folks,
I have been a Team.net member since Moses bought his materials for the
ark. It has done nothing short of being amazing.  One blazing effort
was obtaining two panels for my MGB GT V8 from a member at under $300
when 'suppliers' wanted $3,000 (for those arithmatically minded that
is1/10 the price). /But wait there is more! /The parts arrived and I was
gob-smacked to find they where /original BL parts !!!!
/I run the Aston Martin Feltham Club with a mere 165 members - BUT
membership is not simple as we keep a record of members data - including
photos.  So I know what it is like for Mark. AND I do not have his
computer skills.
Mark - can I send wampum by PayPal?????
Cheers
Barrie

Many of us have made numerous friends, in-person and by email, via
Team.Net.
Before Team.Net I did not know what to do with a dead cat (newer readers
will not get this).
Members have talked me through numerous little puzzles of things
electrical and in my overdrive. It was through Team.Net that I was introduced
to Peter Caldwell, Worldwide Auto; Jeff Schlemmer, Advanced Distributors;
Barney Gaylord, MGA Guru, and several others whose help has been
indispensable, not to mention encouragement to find even more uses for the
Dremel Tool.
Could you publish your mailing address for donations by check?
