[TR] Triumph Trans AmeriCan 2009 - $4500 of $6000 collected

[Glenn A. Merrell]

Hello All!

To date, $6000 has been pledged  http://www.ranteer.com/misc2/ and $4500 
collected.  So if you have not yet grabbed that checkbook to support 
this effort, please do so this weekend.

This is a much better cause than paying your taxes, and besides, you 
have to do something with your "Economic Stimulus Payment" our US 
Congress has so graciously stuck in your wallet in time for summer 
driving.  :-D
Any amount donated is greatly appreciated, and if you have already 
Pledged and not anted up, remember, we know who you are and where your 
Triumph is parked  ;-)
ah ... so we can send you your raffle tickets of course ...  8-)

The Stag is now sitting in Illinois at the Triumph and Quarter Horse 
Farm in Hampshire since about 8:00pm Sunday 9 March.

ISOA will be kicking off some off the dissection phase discussion at 
their annual ChiliFest Saturday 15 March, and after fueling up with the 
appropriate amount of greenhouse gases, will then descend on the Triumph 
and Quarter Horse Farm to warm the workshop and extract the engine to 
commence checking off the long list of restoration tasks.

An appropriate obedient scribe and historian has begun documenting this 
restoration process, so I would expect to see something pop up in the 
form of photos in the next 30 days.

In the mean time, do keep your eyes peeled for some of the sweet 
publicity we have planned to surface in the next couple of months.

AmeriCan 2009 Charity Drive!

Cheers!
