Well as most of you know I'm part of SVTOATC, and our director is Dan Neinstadt. He's seriously the nicest guy you'll ever meet. He knows ALOT about cars too. Well him & his girlfriend Michelle had a tragic experience last friday 3/25/05, They woke up to their house burning down. Dan tried to fight the fire but it wasn't enough. The house burned for 2 1/2 hours. Everything was lost, there's nothing left. here's a link to the pictures. There was an '04 F-150, an '04 Ranger, an '04 Mystic Chrome Cobra, an '64 Impala (ss I think) totally restored, and a fox body mustang vert, I'm not quite sure of the year, and 2 snowmobiles (not sure which kind or what year).

The good news!!! They both escaped, Dan with a few minor burns, and Michelle is just fine. They were no animals lost.
I understand that most of you do not know them. But to me they're like family. They're in our svt family is how people put it. I just really want to help. If any of you know what this is like it's very very hard. If anyone would like to help with anything, they have a gift registry at target here's a link to that too

If anyone would like to purchase gift certificates they would like the following

CLOTHES
-Kohls
-Target

FOOD
-Cub
-Restaraunts (Chipotle...Dan's favorite, Applebees, Panera)
and any other place you'd like, they're not picky.

HOME
-Home Depot
-Menards
-Slumberland (for furniture)
-Sears

If you have any questions you can talk to me or Blackcoog, he is the one collecting the gifts.

All of the things you would like to donate you can bring to a meeting (if you'd like to come) or send to:

Dan and Michelle
6063 Central Ave NE,
Fridley, MN 55432

This is a friend (blackcoog) that does not live far, who is collecting things for them. They pick up stuff about every day or 2. Anything would be greatly appreciated. If you would like to remain annonymous that is just fine also.

Thank you so much! Denise and the svtoatc family!
