I just wanted to take a minute to thank you all for all your efforts. This entire experience has been and still is unbelievable. I am so very grateful for all that has been done and for what is yet to come. I just want you all to know that. The people I have gotten to know upon joining this site and everyone I met at the OCBR this year, I am so very thankful to be a part of such a wonderful community. You all will be our extended family as we go wherever the ARMY sends us. Thanks again so much. :)

The OBB Web Page.

Have you guys checked out the Bronco restore web page? It looks pretty awesome. Corey did a great job on updating it!! :cool: ;D

Anyone come up with an idea about how to get the hard top to John yet?? Can you believe it is only going to be a few more weeks and the OBB project is going to be coming to an end? I can't wait to see the Hubby's face. :eek: :eek:

OBB Ebay Auction for the project

John, are there new pics?



What do you guys think about us having another OBB raffle? Are there any items you would like in the raffle? Please let me know what ya'll think so we can get it started soon.
;D

What do you guys think about Ebay auctions for the donated items? Since we have already a raffle for the OBB this might be a different way to get a little extra money really needed for the Hard Top shipping charges... Any input? Whatever we decide we are going to have to make a decision soon. Hubby will be getting home in about a month. We will need to get the Top here before Christmas... Thanks for all your help so far you guys. You are all awesome. ;D ;D

I think ebay might be a good way to do this.... if I can get the stuff sent to me so I can photo and work up descriptions, I will be glad to take care of posting the items and handling the sales.

Wow! We sure are getting close to the end of this project! It has been amazing so far. We were trying to come up with a way to bring in a little money to help complete this operation. I was considering another raffle, but I am not sure that is the best route to take. It has been suggested that we collect the items offered and place them up for auction on eBay. What do you guys think about this option? It would be seen by more people, and maybe the items would bring more than what a raffle would bring. I want your opinions on this before we do anything. This is your project. None of this would have been done without all of you. Let me know what you think so we can get this started either way. Auction or Raffle? Are there any items you guys might like to offer for this cause? Thank you all again so much! Ya'll are wonderful! :D

My opinion is the "stuff" offered is for the purpose of rasing funds. Something that I'm sure is key to finishing on time. So....again "IMHO" would be to do whatever is needed to maxamize the "funding" ie Ebay if you are so inclined. (hopefully all biders "buck up")

Thank you for your opinion. I am not known for my decision making skills so at the end of the week we will do one or the other based on the responses here. Thank you all again. ;D

We'll have a celebrity on TV? Someone needs to record and make an MPG file for all of us to view!

That sounds like a good idea. It shouldn't be long now and we will get to be on the local news! We just have to get a day nailed down. ;)
