Donations Needed

[Paul Mossberg]

Good evening TDr (and other replica) fans.

It’s been over three years since I solicited donations. But the time has come.

A couple months ago I reimbursed Stephen for a three year renewal for our domain license. That payment was $395.00. I came close to a break even point three years ago; but have now paid out $403.50.

Membership to the forum and our extensive library as you know is free. But there are costs involved in keeping this site alive.

Please consider helping if you can.

I can accept PayPal or Zelle to:
Paulemossberg@gmail.com
908-338-4570

Or checks payable to me and mailed to:
2438 Southmoore Drive
Bath PA 18014-9298
USA

Thank you!

Hello forum members!

We are still in need of donations.

I’m out of pocket $395.64 for a three year site registration fee, and Stephen Houser is out of pocket $149.00 for enhanced security protection as we continue to deal with spammers.

Since I first posted on July 14, 2025, I have received a total of $100 from four forum members.
Thank you to, Bill Ascheman, Henry Palach, John Stewart and Robert Strain for the support.

But Stephen and I are still out of pocket a total of ($444.64).

If you value this community and are financially able, please consider helping out.

Sorry Paul just seeing this. Sent some $

[Paul Mossberg]

Thank you Ed Ericson, Bernard Greig and Lisa & Curtis Wallace for their generosity!

We still have a gap of $282.58 needed to cover the out of pocket expenses incurred by Stephen and me. And if anyone is checking the math, we’ve had a -$7.94 “deficit” since the last time we triedntonraise funds back in 2022.

Thanks again to all who have donated.

But at the end of the day, only seven members have stepped up. Please consider helping out!

Thank you David Krueger for sending in a donation.

That said, we incurred an additional expense for a two year extension on our WordFence security package.

Our total deficit stands at ($297.56).

I made sure our good friend Stephen Houser has been reimbursed for his out-of-pocket. So that deficit has come out of my pocket. It’s truly sad that only eight forum members have seen fit to make a contribution, nine when you count me.

Please consider helping us cover our expenses and keep this valuable resource alive! To be completely frank, I’m not going to continue to fund this myself. We need to raise sufficient funds to cover the current deficit, plus sufficient funds to cover future expenses.

The normal fees:

Three year site hosting fee: $400 for three years, last paid in April 2025 comes due again in April 2028

Wordfence: $149 per year, last paid in July 2025, will be due each July

Domain Registration: $39 for two years, last paid October 2025, will be due again in October 2027

Paul

Please PM me with your address and I will send a donation by check. I don’t come on here that much any more ( heavy into motorcycles for awhile now ) but like that it is here and touch base now and then. I will be in VA Beach with a few other members next weekend 17th-19th of Oct 2025 for the car/air show with my TD. Come if you can as it would be good to see you again. I don’t do PayPal or others.

Thanks

Thank you Don Loveless and Phi; Kenyon for your donations! Much appreciated.

I’m still about $200 out of pocket, and that would bring us to only zero, it will not cover any future expenses.

So please consider helping out (if you haven’t already!
