OK the thread in (general) "may have to sell the Busa" was posted awhile back. From the sound of things Tree needs a hand, if we get enough of us to pitch in a little maybe we can save a Busa? OK, is saving someone elses Busa a high priority in the grand scheme of things? Maybe not, but can we do it?
Check out the thread, enough of us can save alot more than one Busa...

All right. I'm having no luck finding any kind of employment. I interviewed for a couple of jobs that were out of my field and got the usual, "we hired some one more qualified". No crap. Why did you interview me in the first place when you knew I wasn't qualified. Being a Mechanical Designer if I apply for a laborer position I am prety much brushed off. Even though I used to be a laborer, they don't care. They they like to ask what I made at my last job. If I lie, they have something to hold against me. It I tell the truth I get the sob story, we can't pay you that much. I reply with "I still need a job". I found out last week that I may not be eligable for un-employment this time. The local office screwed up my paper work. Now I have to wait an additional 2 weeks just to find out if I am eligable. Fortunately my federal income tax came back and this will cover our general house bills for the next couple of months. My only wory is the bike.
Any way. As much as I hate to do it, if you would like to help, my address is:
Steven Long
860 Longfellow Ave.
Wood River, IL 62095
I will keep detailed records for those who do choose to help me out, and I will pay you back in full as soon as I am back to work.
Thanks

I have sent him $25, Rubberside is in for at least $20 that I know of, and there may be others. Can we get together on this?
