We had overwhelming turnout and very genreous volunteers... Our goal was $10K and we raised over $30,000 this afternoon... Here's picture of Jimmy Johnson (on left). He was able to leave hospital and attend event... Kinda has that Telly Salvelas look... One of local Custom auto painters (Jimmy Johnson) is fighting a 2nd bout with Leukemia. Tomorrow, we're having a benefit car show, auction, fund raiser at local restaurant in Covington, LA. All sales from restaurant will also go toward fund raiser.
Here's some toilet seats done by Kal (Bra guy) that will be part of auction... I'll be bidding on one of these... I have one from Nyle Wing, so now I may need a double holer... These are pretty neat... My favorite..
Another flame...
My 2nd choice...
another graphic design...

Wow laddie--great T seats. Hope they're good quality. I sat my big a$$ on one and cracked it. Found out it was just molded foam and plastic clad. Talk about embarrasing. I only use HD seats now.

Chuck.I bought the purple & gold flame toilet seat for $175. The Blue & Green sold for $175. I didn't bid over the $100 for you sorry... The auction went very well along with the car show, raffle & dinner at the restaurant. All the help even donated their Tip money to Jimmy. The goal was $10,000 and we raised over $30,000. Lots of different door/raffle items were donated and everyone should be thanked including all the volunteers who planned and worked the benefit... In times of need, the good really shine... Here's some pics... My Kat by the sign...
DJ & auction stand. Kal ended up doing six seats...
Some of the cars...
Some of the crowd...
MC's and some of the crowd... Auction almost over ...
We had four Prowler owners attend along with their Prowlers. Al & Darlene, Ray K., Pete V. and Karen & I...
