I haven't really been on in a few days...since the exhaust went up, and I must say all the stuff that he has is insane!!! There are going to be LOTS of VERY happy people on this site in the next few days/weeks. I love this site, and the people on it...well most of the people on it. I do think Ray should get something though...he has been EXTREAMLY helpful to everyone. (Wink wink, give Ray rims.)

I vote Ray for Moderator of the year (with Phil unisys a very close second) and think if anyone on this site deserves something for helping people out it should be Ray. He does the best how-to's with pics and seems like a pretty fair guy.
If Ray wins, I'll even throw in $10.00 toward shipping costs for the wheels to his house. He needs 'em. With the new kid and the air gun happy house wife he really needs them.....

This is not a voting, "plead my case" situation or contest.
Please let JED make his own decisions.

Again... I agree... I am moved by the sentiment from WAY more people than I would have ever imagined... however:
The focus of this post was to elicit a very selfless act, and to improve the overall community that is CEG through said act. It isn't about me, nor should it be. I am sure that Jed knows what he wants to do, etc...
Once, again, Jed: I commend you for such a great offer to your fellow enthusiasts.

I just read through every single one of the posts and it blew my mind. Go Jed.
Thanks, you are a role model to what a generous human being should be.

I wonder how much traffic CEG has generated in the last few days... Is excess bandwidth/usage gonna be a problem??

Wellâ?¦I sold the Rousch Racing wheels and tires for a $1.
Maybe someone knows the story behind these wheels. I believe they are a limited edition wheel installed by Rousch on select Mercury Cougars (I think it was the 35th anniversary cars). The center cap has the name â??ROUSCHâ? on the medallion.
The overstock was sold through BAT, which is where I bought them. When I called BAT to inquire, they had five left, so I bought all five.
I donâ??t know if this makes them more valuable or not, but it is an interesting story to research and you wonâ??t see very many of them on Contours!
Iâ??ve had these in storage for a while (since May 2003) and I never completely opened the wrapping until now.
This is the only item I plan to sell without an open classified advertisement and the chance for everyone to make an offer. Try not to be disappointed they are sold and just be happy for the person who won them. It is a small gesture in recognition of a man with a truly generous soul.
Generosity is not all about money. There are few members of CEG who have not benefited in some way from the humor, patience, experience, and good automotive sense of the man I am shipping these to tomorrow.
Selling these the way I did was the right thing, but please donâ??t ask me to make any more private sales.
Iâ??m also going to delay further sales until the items I shipped Saturday reach their destination.
