Default Fallen hero Father/Son project: needs your help!

Guys, I got this over at Camaros.net...

http://www.camaros.net/colton/

<font color="red">"When Lance Colton's father Shane was killed in Iraq last spring, the '68 Camaro they were restoring sat abandoned in the garage. That is, until the community got involved. They are assisting in restoring a project that had created a strong bond between father and son.</font>

I'd encourage any and all to help out in any way possible...

Be nice Bud!! Everyone's been asked to give a lot lately with all the tsunami relief funds at work, church, car clubs, boy and girl scouts and, and, and... Also we have no way of knowing how many folks have given directly to the "Colton Camaro" fund via snail mail. We've also been sending folks directly to Alex at Soffseal so they can donate tires, wheels, and parts.

Hey, how'd that happen, I never get to be the good cop!!

You're absolutely right. I just sent $20 using the Paypal link in the first posting. Very small sacrifice compared to that gentleman's. I hope the son has many fond memories of his father while cruising that Camaro.

I will keep looking for ways to support the personnel fighting this war - I will also look for political efforts to change these recent military policies I don't agree with or like.

Thanks for the link.

For those of you who are kind enough to make a donation, and do it via PayPal, BE SURE and click the "Return to Merchant" button after checkout to get your copy of Virtual Engine Dyno.

I just got this message from Alex (Soffseal) and thought I should share it. To those that have contributed directly or through paypal; You are a great bunch! Here's what Alex wrote...

This is good. I consider it an indirect way to support our troops. You'll never miss the money from your Paypal account. I won't.
