How I missed a 13 (14!) page thread...anyway.

Are these going to be for sale outside of the pre-order group?

Thanks,

Mike

I think that Paul (VaGolfer1950) was maintaining a waiting list in case people backed out, so you may want to email him just in case.

Andy

Paul,
Be aware that there is alot of "SPOOF" Stuff floating around that looks like its from PayPal but it isn't. On more that 3 occasions I have had a similar incident happen to me. I usually forward anything that even "looks" like it comes from PayPal to spoof@paypal.com. And 9 times out of 10 the e-mail is fraudulent. E-mails that are "phishing" to steal your user info. I rarely ever get a communication from the Legit PP. Having over 450 ebay transactions I'm familiar with a lot of things people try to pull with spoof e-mails.

Jon,

I agree that we sometimes get email spoofs purportedly from Pay Pal as I have received them myself and I do not have a Pay Pal account.

In Paul's case he was notified by Pay Pal that his account had shown recent unusual activity which has happened as people started to send their payment into Pay Pal for the Natty Boh car.

After all of the phone conversations and time invested by Pay Pal I doubt that this was a "phising" expedition.

If someone had been spoofed they never would have gotten to talk to anyone.

Steve Tapper

When dealing with PayPal, just make sure you always, always type
the URL into the browser yourself. The spoofs are good, look
exactly like a PayPal message, and will have links on the page that
do go to PayPal (help, etc). However, you can be sure that
the bogus link will be something like

https://www.paypal.com.aaaaaaa...aaaaaa.somewhere.ru/

which will dump you at a hacker site in Russia.

Just type in https://www.paypal.com/ by hand in your browser
window, and you should be OK. If PayPal has disabled your
account for real, you'll know soon enough :-)

Same holds true for any link received via email. Don't assume
links received from friends are valid unless there is text
with the url that was obviously written by a friend. Your friend's
computer could have been hacked, and a good hack will process
their email and send messages to all addresses in the address book
in an attempt to net more hacked computers.

Mike

Another way to get to the legitimate Pay Pal site is to log onto ebay and use the link to Pay Pal.

I think Atlas has a run of 40' Reefers already coming in May, so they're probably piggybacking them onto the normal run.

IT's quite interesting that Atlas O has done the piggyback on production, esp this soon!. IT must be of Atlas O's good will and the unusually high publicity of this particular car. Wait til 2009 Xmas Ebay season! This car will probably go for some big $$!

Hey Paul, will you PERSONALLY sign each one of my Atlas O boxes! [YES I AM SERIOUS!]

I like just about everyone have received numerous phising emails reported to be from Paypal. Heck today I got a real amateur one suppossedly from Bank of America and the From showed Bank Of America govusq@yahoo.com. LOL! Like any bank is going to use Yahoo email lmao! Click on a link in any of them and you are hosed. When I received the email from PayPal informing me that my account was frozen I knew it was legit as one it used my real name, and two it did not contain a link to log in through. I always go to Paypal from a shortcut I have saved in my links on my browser.

I get the Paypal phonies too even tho I don't have a paypal account, along with the Nigerian bank scams or the "only known relative" ones are the best. Apparently I'm the only known relative to someone named Myambitay Efoombu, even tho both my parent are still alive as are my 5 brothers and sisters, 9 aunts and uncles, 22 cousins and almost 30 of thier kids

Thanks for the suggestion! Worked! Thanks, Paul.

Mike

Very good timing Mike, one reduced his order and you emailed me shortly after.

T hinking about that the other day and decided the 2 will look great behind my Weaver PRR H-10 consolidation.

Chessie I think the Natty Boh reefer will bet the Q4 to your house.

My son who lives in the Baltimore area came down today for the weekend, with a 12 pack of Natty Boh in his hand. Where did I go wrong raising him? He should know to make it a case! LMAO!

I wouldn't be too hard on the boy Paul. Most of the local discount liquor stores that carry Natty Boh only offer it in a 12 pack. Now what you need to do is ask the young man if he knew that two 12 packs equal a case.

I bet he did not do too well in math at school either!

Steve Tapper

Lol he is a teacher! But he did say they only had the one twelve pack in the store. Guess you all have let B'more go to pot since I moved down here in '97 lol!

Sure it's spelled that way but when you type with your two middle fingers you miss a letter here and there. So sue me LMAO!

Paul;

Was it the typing with the two middle fingers (is there a message there?), or was it the effect of the Natty Bo on your vision.? Hmmmmmmmmmm??

Maybe a little of both! LOL!

Paul;

How's your daughter doing??

She is doing very well, she started Physical Therapy this morning. Sheis out of the wheelchair and off crutches as of this week, Now she will be going through weeks of PT to get back her flexibility and muscle strength.

Must have been a heck of a fall. Good to hear she's getting better.

Just a polite reminder to the very few that emailed me that they were sending a money order/check that may have slipped their mind to please do so. I have acknowledged everyone that their payments were received when they came in so if you haven't received the acknowledgment and mailed something please contact me so nothing slips through the cracks. Thank you.

Paul;

Glad to hear that your daughter is doing so well in her recovery. She is making outstanding progress so far. Having youth on your side doesn't hurt either!

Steve Tapper

Paul, I just have one question for you. will the reefer car come with a cold 6 pack of Natty Boh? Just kidding, but a guy can wish.

Only if you pick it up here Beertrain, then I'll offer you a chilly one!

Hey Paul;

Perhaps we can coordinate a parking lot celebration with some Natty Boh in coolers for those who will be meeting with you to pick up their cars.

I'm sure that a few of us locals can come up with a few six packs or 12 packs to share a beer amongst the crowd who will be meeting locally.

We can kick this around some more when we set a date to meet to pick up our cars.

Steve Tapper

We Baltimore boyz always come prepared with a THIRST AID kit.

Now you're talking Nick!

Steve Tapper

Well Natty Boh Gear has offered the store to meet to pass out the reefers, don't know how they are on consuming in the store but I will check, and since they are scheduled for delivery in May and the weather in B'more is great in May meeting in the parking lot at the Natty Boh Brewery is a good idea also. We'll kick it around when the date gets closer.

I have been playing around with my Print shop program and came up with these.
I'm sure you guys with Mac computers could do a much better job. It's somethng to toss around while waiting for May and the Baltimore Trirst Aid Kits to arrive.





Doug

Doug they're awesome.

Those graphics are great Doug!

Very creative! Knights of the Boh!

Paul;

That's good news about the Natty Boh Gear store offering their store to meet, how appropriate.

I'm sure that the parking lot would also be the appropriate place for us to share in the moment with an ice cold Natty Boh.

Steve Tapper

Thanks Nick & Steve,

I came up with this idea from Doc Holliday's post when he wrote;

"We are the Brothers of the Boh. Also known as Knights of the Natty."

Doug

Hey Doug;

Does membership also include a secret decoder ring?

No, but the password is "I Noh Boh".

Andy

That's awesome stuff on the print shop , Doug!

Hey, Paul, they'd make good shirt logos, and the Knights wouldd look great on the back of a leather jacket . . . .

just in case you were looking for another project.

Dave, you have to send in 100 bottle caps to get the decoder ring

We are the Knignts who say Ni.........I mean Boh

LOL

I emailed Chris at Miller Engineering to inquire about the possibility of a Natty Boh animated sign, citing the success of Paul's outstanding efforts in obtaining the production of the Natty Boh Reefer. Chris stated that they are still considering making the sign and that production will depend on the licensing terms. Chris authorized the posting of his response on the forum.

Andy

I spoke to Chris at Miller Engineering also to let him know just how much a response there was to the reefer to help in any decision on what signs to make. He was very interested in the overwhelming response on the reefer and I have emailed him the contact information on the person I dealt with from Natty Boh to get licensing.

On another note I was hoping that I would have a first production proof of the Natty Boh reefer to take to York but I have heard from Atlas that it will not be done in time for the York TCA meet. But I will have some cold Natty Boh in the trunk!

I sure hope that Chris Miller can work out an arrangement with the Natty Boh people to come out with a sign. I can assure you that I would but one!

Steve Tapper

Steve I hope so too, however I can tell you that dealing with the guy at Natty Boh that is in charge of granting permission is a real execise in patience and frustration. I know for a fact the MTH negatiated with him for months as they wanted to do a National Boh reefer and gave up in frustration. Chris would love to make it he has said in conversations I have had with him on the Natty Boh sign, and he knows that with the response to the reefer and the fact the sign would be so cool looking he could sell them out, but it comes down to whether he can get permission and at a resonable royalty.

Got an email a few minutes ago from Chris at Miller Engineering and he says he is working on the design of the sign but what he can't find is an image of the animation. Does anyone have anything that can help with that or can take a short film clip to send to Chris?

Okay found the animation here it's near the end of this clip. Natty Boh

Paul

Try this one...
