Alot of 411/412 owners were discussing a 411/412 club when the place we were using got yanked from under us, hopefully we can carry on here with those discussions.

Count me in. My wife's <i>first car</i> was a 412. Mrs. Bubblehead has a lot of technical expertise to offer on these models.

I'm still in. Anybody know what happened with STF. If it's down for good, there's alot of good information lost.

I'm going to try and contact Tuna by going to his site, then jump to the site he had set up for us. i imagine several of our 411-412 brothers have went there to find out what happened.

I think this is a ploy by the MAN to divide the type 4 community and scatter us to the wind. We were getting a little too close to accomplishing something good and had to be stopped.

The MAN ? At first I laughed,....then I thought about it. You may be right. "A group that wants to 'save' the whole car,...not just the engine! This will not do!"
For some reason I'm flashing back to Pink Floyd's "The Wall"

Well, does anyone know where we were in the club business? I'm putting a little time here and there into the club site, but until haminc.biz is ready, I'm committed to getting Len ready.
I don't remember, are we accepting T3 people? If so, we need a revised logo soon.

As far as T-3 is concerned, last vote, majority had voted NO.
Membership, majority voted: 411-412 owner/enthusiast
Club type, majority had voted: International w/continental Charters
We had reached a quorum the last time I looked. So its official.

Who/what is a Len ?
|
Len Hoffman of http://www.haminc.biz/ is a specialist when it comes to
cylinder heads, especially the Type 4. He wants a web site, so he hired
me to work with him to do his site. Since his site is a business deal, I'm
committed to getting his site done.
Rest assured, I'm still working on our club and registry web site going.
Right now is the hard part: layout and structure. If anyone has any
suggestion, feel free to contact me via email.
