Get Danny's Dream Car on the Road
Daniel Anthony Fetta.
May 21st, 1999 - August 26th, 2021.
As a well known car enthusiast and respected member of the car community, Danny spent most of his free time and whatever money he had working on his project cars. The most important project was his beloved Hibiscus Red B5 S4. He purchased the car during a blizzard out of state with a dream of restoring it to perfection. There was only one problem... when he got it, it was automatic.
The Hibiscus Red B5 S4 needed a third pedal. Danny purchased a manual transmission from across the United States and shipped it to his driveway in Hebron, CT. The boxes of parts piled up on the front deck of his parents house and filled his basement making it look like an autobody shop. Months turned into years and countless hours of work in the searing heat and frigid winters of Connecticut. Danny managed to pull the motor, rebuild the engine, swap the transmission, start the re-wiring and slap it back together with the help of anyone he could beg, including his mother (she knows how to hold a flashlight). Danny spent so much time under this car that was held up using only 4 jack stands. He was so proud of this car. It was 1 of 43 automatic transmission cars in this color. 105 Hibiscus B5 S4s were sold with the six speed; he wanted to be number 106.
The car is almost road-worthy; it needs a few more touches to be ready for the first ride. It was Danny's ultimate goal to cruise the highways behind the wheel of this machine. He dreamed of showing off his most prized possession at car shows across the East Coast. Tragically, Danny passed away and never got the chance to turn the engine over and hear the sound of his baby come to life. It now needs the help of everyone Danny knew to make it the perfect ride.
He would be incredibly grateful and so happy to see his car running. It would be even more special to know that everyone he knew and cared about had a hand in this project.
If you can, please donate and help complete Danny's dream car. Let's make it perfect.
