Dave asked me to post this here. MM.Net will make a donation for half the amount of the total cost of framing the print for Steve, on behalf of all our Members. If you wish to donate, please follow the instructions below.


As most know, we got the Marauder artwork done by world famous Michael Irvine a few years back. The picture below is mine framed up. At Woodward, I discovered that Steve Babcock, Father of the Marauder, never received his print. If you recall, Steve Babcock met with Michael Irvine in St. Thomas, Ontario, so both could sign the prints! In appreciation, Michael was going to give Steve Print #001. However, due to a miscommunication, Steve never received his print. I talked to Michael, and worked it out and had them send it to me and it arrived last week. I want to have it professionally framed like I did to mine, that will cost about $200 or so. I wanted to see if there was interest enough for US to pay it back and chip in and we all pay for it. If we all kick in $10 or $20, we should have it covered. When we present it, I will let him know that it came from the people that appreciate his work on bringing this car to us! If you want to contribute, please PAYPAL whatever you want to contribute to: MCM@Motorcitymarauders.com

AND INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING IN THE COMMENTS SECTION:
1) NAME
2) THIS IS A DONATION FOR FRAMING STEVE'S PRINT

Thanks,
Dave Popovich
