The Second Annual Tyler Shipman Memorial Car Show
Donations and Door Prizes

Last year’s Tyler Memorial Show was a huge success, with a total of 102 vehicles, 47 of those Fieros, and another three Fieros around town that did not enter.

We raised $1,600 for the Roger Maris Cancer Center Research Division, a very worthy cause.

This year, all entry fees from the show will be benefiting the Tyler Shipman Memorial Scolarship, another very worthy cause. Meant to help college bound Frazee Seniors, it benefits the community directly.

There is a $10.00 entry fee per vehicle at the show, with no limit to how many vehicles you’d like to enter.

For many Fiero owners, making the trip is not feasible, thus, this post…

There has never been anything quite like the Tyler Project in Fiero history, and it will go down in lore in many car communities around the globe as one of the greatest things to happen in automotive history.

Everyone wants to be a part of it, everyone wants to do what they can to help...

Announcing the non-participant car show entry fee!

Your $10.00 buys you a virtual spot at the Tyler Shipman Memorial Car Show!

That’s right! Be a participant at the show without actually participating!

Your virtual participation entitles you to a chance at one of the fabulous door prizes available (listed below) and the privilege of saying that you helped a great cause.

Note: The non-participant entry does not entitle you to a vehicle spot if you do show up at the show. You must purchase a participant entry, sold separately.

Every $10.00 you donate entitles you to another non-participant entry, and another name in the bucket for the door prizes at the show. (Names will be drawn and awarded after the show at the Shipman's home..)
Need not be present to win a door prize, you only need to be a non-participant on record for the show.

Door Prizes:
All prizes are Fiero specific (with exception of the quilt), and the list is subject to minor changes.
Photos of the prizes will be listed as they are taken.

Grand Prize
Complete Hella 90MM low profile upgrade kit for your Fiero. Total Retail Value: $620 dollars
Includes: Fiero1Fan low profile all steel construction replacement buckets, Hella 90MM Projector low beams (x2), Hella 90MM Reflector high beams (x2), all bulbs and installation hardware, Synthesis’ own Tier 3 Hella headlight harness.

First Prize:
Nellie’s Own Hand Made Fiero Quilt. Total Retail Value: Priceless
Made entirely by Nellie Shipman, this quilt features a black and white checker pattern with red and yellow accents, and a Pegasus in the middle. A beautiful design.



Second Prize:
DIY-Stu’s Inner and Outer Dew Wipe Kit for all year Fieros: Total Retail Value: $220 dollars
Better than OEM quality, these replacement inner and outer dew wipes replace your hardened and cracked 20+ year old wipes. Includes inner wipes, outer wipes, and felt covered window guide tabs.

Third Prize:
Battery Relocation Kit. Total Retail Value $190 dollars
Includes: V8 Archie Fiberglass front mount battery tray, Synthesis’ own 4 Gauge sidepost front mount battery cables. Move your battery in style, everything you need to mount and wire in your front mount battery is included in this kit.

Fourth Prize:
Fiero STS custom built Lamp! No Retail Price, these are always in high demand when Tim makes them. Priceless!
Fiero STS has stepped up to the plate with one of his hand made custom lamps. Made from various car parts with a valve cover as the light shield, these are attention grabbers and conversation pieces, and they work beautifully!
I have always wanted one of these pieces of art, but never had the money on hand to win one during the club auctions... Photos incoming as soon as they are available!
I have higher res images, but these will give you a good idea...





Fifth Prize:
LED Side Marker Kit, both front and rear, either smooth molding or ribbed molding! Winner's Choice!
Danyel has donated a full set of side markers, retail value of $175 dollars to the cause.
These are ready to bolt in and really enhance the looks of any Fiero! Instead of a tiny dot of light in the middle, the entire marker lights up!

Sixth Prize:
Full LED Interior Upgrade for all years Fiero from TLG Auto (Oslo on the forum here). Retail value: 178 dollars.

Level 2 Dome Light LED Kit
Level 2 Floor Light LED Kit

Seventh Prize:
InfiniteWill has donated one of his Gen3 GT Trunk gaskets to the cause! Better than OE quality.

3M Corporation has donated a gift box filled with many of their fine products. This is a single prize that includes everything from personal health care items to adhesives to automotive products.

2.5 has donated one of his Fiero Geocoins to the prize bin. Featuring blue with a grey secondary color, and all of the models of the Fiero imprinted on the edge of the coin, this particular coin is special in that it has Tyler's name emblazoned on the front.
2.5 has agreed to donate this as a special prize in the hopes that every year, when the show comes around, the winner of this prize consider donating it again... This particular coin could literally be passed for many many years and have a storied history to it...
Photos incoming.

Rodney Dickman has donated two of his new Aluminum Slave Cylinders, one for the Getrag and one for the Isuzu. Sadly, I can not award these based on your particular needs, but the winners will be posted here, so you can negotiate with someone for it if you'd like.

Various other prizes, including Fiero Store gift certificates, and waiting for input from another vendor or three.

Excellent idea!

$20 on the way... can't wait to get my virtual camp on!

And the donations are rolling in... Let's double what was raised last year!

We have approximately $1,700 worth of prizes right now..

Guess I'm a happy camper now too!

You've got a donation! I WANT THAT QUILT!

quote Originally posted by JohnWPB: You've got a donation! I WANT THAT QUILT!

Hah! My eyes got big when I saw your donation arrive... I read the thread.. Note the donation update at the bottom of the first post.

$20 sent to you Synthesis...Good luck to everyone.

Bob

Thanks RCR!

Archie's Battery Tray just arrived at my door.. Thank you Archie!

well I DO want that quilt haha.

Times have been tough with the economy and all, and I really do not donate a lot to charity, so I thought this would help make up for that. I also figure, being I will be there, but not my car, I could at least be one of the ones with the most "virtual spots" to help make up for it

Sadly, I am exempt from the drawings
But I want a chance at the quilt too. John, donate another 100 bucks, and if you win it, we'll toss a coin.

You know that's a good idea. As long as I get to toss the coin.

Oh, and I get to call it.

After it lands

We are off to a great start. Money Sent!

First post updated!
I am keeping track of everything in an Excel Spreadsheet.

The Real Name and Address and Phone numbers are only so that if you win something, I can notify you without having to wait four or five days for a PM response, etc.
This way, I can also package and label anything that is won.
The data will be purged after the car show.

Some of the prizes, such as the marker lights will actually be a gift certificate style prize. Since you have a choice of what you can get, ribbed or rounded, a gift certificate seems the easiest choice for that style prize.

Have the kids in the show pull the winners. They'll like that and the adults will not blame anything as being "fixed"

Need a couple Generic vehicle prizes too.

[This message has been edited by DIY_Stu (edited 03-02-2011).]

Bump to the top... Only 149 days til the show! time is running out!!!

What no "goodie bags"

Man John, you are making some of us look bad @ $20 j/k
I kinda feel like a heal for NOT going bigger with my donation

That's crazy talk - every dollar donated is important. Our ultimate goal is to be able to finance 2 $500 scholarships per year. We were able to do that last year. We already have enough money to do that in May this year. Thanks to you folks, we are well on our way to 2012 being covered too. I can't explain what it felt like last year to hand out those scholarships in honor of Tyler. It's these things like the scholarship and car show that keeps us connected to Tyler and gives us an opportunity to speak publically about our son. We don't want his memory to fade into oblivion.

$50 sent

I won't be able to attend this year but I hope my donation helps our youth of today. They are our future after all.

That was a joke since you missed it.

She didn't miss it. She just wanted to emphasize that you shouldn't feel like a heel for not ponying up more dough...
Money is tight with people everywhere. I understand that...
So, the following is said tongue in cheek...

The kids can go with a little less food, as this is a great cause.

And now people, enough donations already! When I made my donation I had better than a 50/50 chance at the quilt!

Then I saw YOUR name, and remembered I took that with my phone and MMS's it to ya. Just for that brief time, I was like.... How???.... LOL

Yep, he flew first class with me to Puerto Rico last Tuesday It's my sister in law's dog, and was taking it to her.
