Don Smith - 21 Aug 2006 19:16 GMT I have heard from a member of our club that the owner of a 1948 Studebaker in California wants to donate their car to the Jimmy Carter center here in Atlanta, Georgia. A contact for the center has asked our club for help in finding someone to donate the transportation costs. I have asked for the contact information and will be glad to provide that to any serious inquiries about helping out.

John Poulos - 21 Aug 2006 20:16 GMT Might be a good way to get rid of the Internet treasury and CD profit money.We need to do something with it while we are still alive to keep track of it. <g> Even if we don't use it for this, someone has to do something with it.

I will NOT support the use of IC funds for a tax write-off for someone... and a cheap a.s'ed way to get someone else to pay money (shipping) for someone to charge money (museum) for something to look at (a Studebaker). I'd rather piss all the IC money away to the SNM for that club meeting room than this idea..... Jeff (hot, sweaty, and po'd... <lol>) Rice

> NAY! > [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > -- > Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com John Poulos - 22 Aug 2006 02:59 GMT Setting aside funding the shipping issue, Carter is a ex President that owed a Studebaker. Some folks pay money to see his museum, those folks would see the Studebaker, and that's a good thing. After all the Ford museum proudly displays a letter from John Dillinger about Fords and he was not exactly a pillar of the community. BTW, the content of your comment could launch the black helicopters to your home.

Jeff Rice - 22 Aug 2006 03:13 GMT I do hope that my earlier comments were not taken at the political level. I just thought that a donation to a money making museum should not have strings and conveyances attached. Museums are like fund raising companies. They spend a great deal of time in the pursuit of generating more fundraising, and the skim (a crude but effective term) is very lucrative. The act of actually bringing historical information to the viewing public and actually educating people seems to take a back seat. Just whose museum it is seems a minor point.

Lansing Small - 22 Aug 2006 22:39 GMT Jeff...Your comments did not ask the question I wondered ?? IS this very car the one and only one that the EX President used or did someone else use it then blame it on poor Jimmy Carter ?? for tax savings ??...So how do they/us prove this was really the one owned at one time by Mr.Carter ?? wasn't he in the Navy back then ?? and could he even aford a stude then ?? More questions than answers !
So I think if they give the car,whatever the reasons, they should deliver it as well to the museum door !!
PS...As Jeff was unually for him short***** on this topic,I think he has moving/packing stress for which we can all agree will make anyone be a bit short******.......just my opinion...

He did one thing right in his life...he owned a Studebaker.
George H. Bush also owned a Studebaker but I'd be willing to bet that there won't be one donated to his 'museum' (library) anytime down the road. I'd rather see the funds go for something more tangible than to provide free transportation to some else's Philanthropic gesture to gooberville.

the top was down, but I didn't see any stains on the upholstry.
someone did cobble in some round JENSEN speakers in the rear seat fender panels.
other than that, its a very nice original car

Lee Aanderud - 22 Aug 2006 14:02 GMT And who are you again??? Someone who changed his name which reads, "Kneel Down and Blow Me"? I guess "Suck My Dick" was too subtle and too the point.

Oh yeah and he basically led the way to appeasement beginning with Iran, gave away the Panama Canal, initiated the greatest example of runaway inflation in the 20th century (to go along with interest rates), and after his presidency notably negotiated (along with that other incompetent, Richardson) that great deal with North Korea regarding Nuclear issues.
Yeah, whatta guy!
