THE PROCESS
preamble
a) if we met on theSamba, please PM provide your Samba username and your real name and your IAC username to help me synchronize our earlier correspondences!
All future correspondence must occur via PM here. No more change of plans hidden in the Preliminary Interest Gauge thread, or email or wherever else we may meet across the internet.
b) You MUST provide your user name, your real name, your address, your contact number on your PayPal deposit in the comment box. It is my free "cloud storage" of your information should my laptop decide to kick the bucket
1. PM me here on the Itinerant Air-Cooled site with:
a) your questions,
b) your List of Concerns from most-important to least important,
c) assessment of your mechanical aptitude, things you'd like to learn.
d) work environment, either rain-proof or plan b for a rainy day.
e) is this a Road Warrior or a weekend putterer? What are your dreams and hopes for this car?
2. I respond with Edited List and Preliminary Parts Guess
3. On the forum, YOU keep an eye on dates filling in and the locations of where these dates are filling in. Then you provide me a couple of feasible dates. Once we have agreed upon a date, you send in your PayPal deposit to:
< 78vw2000@earthlink.net >
heed the below warning:
In the comment box of your PayPal payment window, you SHALL provide your username, real name, address, phone number.
This step is my free "cloud storage". If my computer should ever fritz on me in the 120* desert sun, you all would be lost to me but for your names addresses and phone numbers on my PayPal list.
The Deposit Countdown Clock starts on April 1st and runs through May 13th.
Therefore, May 13th is known as the Deadline.
You wait for the date to show up next to your name. If it is good, send in the deposit. If the date is not good, PM me forthwith and at once!
4. A red D next to your name occurs when your deposit posts to my PayPal. It is our contractual obligation to each other. I will be there on the appointed day at 9:00AM petitioning the house staff for a cup of coffee. I generally refuse to engage in the niceties of confirmation phone calls unless I expect to be more than 15 minutes late or already dead.
