Wow....you guys are amazing...OK I am working on food on this end and fieroguy123 contacted me and will keep me informed of what is needed. My goal is lunch and supper for you guys on Saturday with some snacks of course...as teachers we may not know how to fix cars but we do know how to enjoy food Like I said before I have the wonderful privelage of also being the senior class sponsor. I have been contacted by several members of the class of 09 wondering how they could do something for Tyler. I am going to get back in contact with them and see if maybe they can come together and take care of the hats....does this sound like something feasible? At least maybe they can put some $$ towards the cost of them
Actually, an idea has popped into my little mind... A fund raiser for the family on top of what is already being done.
I am working with Cornersonrails on T-Shirts.. He will print them at cost. About 5 bucks for a Small/Medium/Large/XL, 7 for a 2X or 3X....
The senior class can sell the shirts for 12 for the smaller sizes, 15 for the larger ones. All profits on top of cost would go to the family.
The shirt simply shows a line drawing of Tyler's car. Centered below that is "The Tyler Project 2009" Below that, centered is "www.tylerstoy.com"
On the back is simply a "Thank you to:" with a list below it of everyone who has donated time, parts, labor, new product, money...
In my head, I envision white lettering/line drawing on a solid black T-Shirt.
Does this sound good to anyone?

That sounds great...I am going to email the kids who talked to me...I am sure we can come up for the $$ to cover them...and if the class of 2009 can't I know the class of 2010 could....let me know and I will get in contact with both classes officers....
Alright what do we need of a grey interior that i can 1 either fit on a plane 2 if its to big someone can get it shipped out there. I need absoltley nothing but the gauge cluster and bezels out of the interior of my old GT conversion. So let me know what were going to need.

The shift surround is in good shape on your parts car by the looks of it. Bring that, the radio bezel if it is in good shape (Yes, I did just go there). Pack the surround solid so it does not break.
The AC controls (they look cleaner than what is in there), and if the sunvisors are solid, with minimal to no sag to the cloth and no staining... Those too.

I agree, the design above is awesome EVERYTHING about this is amazing, I have to agree with what fieroguy said, "this has got to be the most amazing display of human compassion that I personally, have ever seen"
Some teachers were also thinking maybe you guys would like to get together at the local establishment known as Zorbaz! Can't make a trip to lake country without going there...Lynxer do you think they would be willing to do anything for the cause? Even if not it is a great place to hang out and I sure some of the teachers would be willing to give up a Friday night to meet and greet Of course Lynxer if you have a different place in mind....
As for the hats glad it is covered....the class of 2009 will have to put their heads back together and come up with something else
You read my mind!!!! haha that is exactly what I had in mind. VikingRedBaron thought that would be good too. These guys will get a kick out of it I will stop over at zorbaz for lunch tomorrow and talk to them see if they will throw in some pizza's and the fiero guys and us will buy our drinks or something like that.

The shifter shroud i can deffenetley do. the radio bezzel ill see if i can find one in the yard. Lol cant give the one in there up because this cars going back on the road but I think I might have a radio bezzel in close to good shape around here. And that hvac unit was having problems when i gave the car up so i dought anything has changed now. Im making a yard run so synthsis get me a list of what we need and ill grab it.

I want one when they come to fruition.. I am sure they would sell very well around town with no problems...
well you can't come here w/o Zorbaz! I am from Nebraska originally and use to come here on vacation. I remember how I would crave Zorbaz during the rest of the year....hopefully Zorbaz will agree to help out...

Nick (Lynxer) and I were talking of this very same thing tonight on my way home from work. Zorbaz would be perfect.
Nick said he was gonna look into it and see what they could do for us.

Zorbaz is good.
I need a family member close to the action to contact me ASAP if at all possible. Tonight would be good for me. 612-605-8993. It will ask for your name before dialing me.
Maybe we should have Pete do an MFF e-mail broadcast to give the club an opportunity to donate items or labor to the project. Waiting for the monthly meeting on the 16th might be too late for people to change plans.
Just a thought.

That is a great idea Jeff.
I spoke with Tyler and his family tonight. With everything going on up there and around here on the forums, I am going to reduce my contact with the media. I think they need a little bit of time to settle back into the daily routine.
Also, please check the first post. I have added business names and numbers up there for the local businesses helping out. Transportation, Lodging and the like are in there, so if you need a pickup from Fargo, and a place to stay, the info is up there.

You guys are all saints. This forum gives me hope for humanity.
We should all pay attention to the companies that are donating and if we need their services in future we should go to them. I think it show a lot about who someone is if they are willing to help a total stranger.

Im assuming they dont have WAWA's out there so i will be bringin about 6 half gallons of there ice tea with me. Anyone else want a half gallon of the best ice tea in PA. I know i cant function without it.
ok im using my boyfriends thingy on here, but i was wondering what parts were still needed, i know ty he is from my home town, and i would love to help out!
ok ill ask mike tomorrow if we got it, if we dont, do you still need mechanical help with it? if so i think i could talk him into doing some of the work on it since he is really familiar with Fieros since his pride and joy is one he rebuilt from the ground up
