Title: That Feb '75 issue of Hot VWs - The California Look. I'm giving it away.... Post by: Metalflakedave on April 29, 2015, 14:29:06 pm Posted for Ben Lawrence AKA UK Samba
'Well, not really, but now i have your attention Heres one thats close to home and close to my heart, so please get involved folks. I will be raffling off my iconic copy of the February 1975 issue of HOT VW'S. THE CALIFORNIA LOOK EDITION!!!!! Im doing this in support of my long time good friend Daniel Boylan who is trekking the sahara to raise funds for the Aplastic Anemia Trust. Please check Dans Just giving page HERE https://www.justgiving.com/DanielBoy...fb_ref=Default That will tell you all you guys need to know and why I'm offering up this piece of VW history. Every single penny raised from the raffle will go directly to the cause, thats EVERY PENNY!!! I don't wish to go into the ins and outs of what Dans family and their son have been through but they have been through a seriously tough time and Morgan has a long road ahead of him, I think between the VW Comminty we can raise a ton of funds and a ton of smiles. Ive read it, its gathering dust, i'd rather someone got an awesome piece of memorabilia for the fraction of the cost ( if you can find a copy for sale ) and we raise a nice chunk for the Aplastic Anemia Trust in the process. So thanks for tuning in, i can tell you that it will be £5 per entry. This isn't a scam, this is the real deal, i paid a lot of money for this mag a while back this is a straight up genuine charity raffle, it old, its used, but its "THAT MAG" so for 5 quid, you could own it I will let you know when tickets are available to buy and the timescale of the raffle. Thanks for listening. Ben.' Mag pics to follow! Title: Re: That Feb '75 issue of Hot VWs - The California Look. I'm giving it away....

Thanks for the support! Apparently we can't use PayPal for this due to their rules, so hang on making payments until further notice - we'll sort something else. Just to confirm, this is totally genuine, its not an auction to the highest bidder, its a raffle to raise as much money as possible for one of my best mates, his son has Aplastic Anemia ( a rare bone marrow blood cell disease ) so giving away a copy of Hot Vw's and making some money for his chosen charity is the least i can do. (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y144/t3ben/photo%20copy%202_zpsqu3zjk6o.jpg) (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y144/t3ben/photo_zps5sgyltlu.jpg) (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y144/t3ben/photo%20copy_zpsbksbhylt.jpg) You'll have to bare with me until i have managed to get a way to enter, it may end up going directly through his just giving page and i'll sort the raffle this end. I minor change also will be that we'll pick the lucky winner on the 30th May, where we will be racing at Bishopscourt, it would seem fitting that we did this so thats what I'm aiming for. Again sorry for the mix up with entry , but I'm on it and as soon as i have something, i'll post it up, oh wait i won't ;D Is there any moderators that could reset my password, i haven't been able to log in for months. Many thanks Benlawrence Title: Re: That Feb '75 issue of Hot VWs - The California Look. I'm giving it away.... Post by: Metalflakedave on April 29, 2015, 23:16:53 pm (Ben here again!!)
