I think Michael is coming to pick it up tonight or tomorrow. I am not sure if you're happy or sad that it will make the 20 mile drive just fine LOL.
Mr. LaBranche, don't worry. I have to go to F-burg to pick up some new GT resonators and then you can have fun installing them along with my new 928 Specialists X-pipe and the headlight bar. Beer and check will be yours!

It's called Guards Red because it gets the Guards all excited, right?
What's that motto again, "To Collect and Serve"?

You see, sometimes I think I'm just being all arrogant when I run searches on my name. But then, in doing so I also find threads like this.
Yes, I will agree, as I've spent many a day drinking beer in Michael's garage. We've even squeezed in some car work, too!

Come on over and grab a chair whenever you want. What do we need to start stocking? So far it is Magic Hat, Blue Moon, Yuengling and Sierra Nevada and lets not forget Pepsi and Coca-Cola products for those that need to drive.

Hey, you finally got a shark!. I remember that's what you were looking for when you ended up with a 944. Let me know when you guys have a wrenching get together.

Well, we have all made it safe and sound into the Ignosci household. Matt, thanks for remembering. I know that Greg knows too. Yes I have been looking for a 928 for a while. I will post some late 70's literature that I have when I get a chance. Both the P-Cars are tucked away for the night and it feels like Christmas!
Who else could say that they have a green and a red Porsche in there garage at Christmas? I know, the green one is sold, Mike, the new owner has been very understanding as has Jason. I could only hope that there are more people like them in the world when my son John grows up. I know.. BIG SOB..

Michael, I'm all set on the garage deal but would really enjoy a get-together to chew the fat, suck down some brews, and compliment each other on our choice of cars.
J, I told my girls you sold the red beast and they were bummed out... they liked the color. lol That's the only aspect of a car they know or care about. Oh, to be young again...

All this talk of a local get together sounds fun.....someone plan something!
Mike, tell the girls I have a red Jeep Wrangler now so they should not pout too much. Since it's red they would probably think it's way cooler than my white 928 LOL.

Hi Michael-
I am the proud new caretaker for the 928S4! Just completed the timing belt change because I wasn't able to confirm any other change since 2005. Everything that came out looked brand new!
I have a question for you. I have the radio code, but I see that it was purchased. The gentleman that I bought the car from gave me every receipt and slip of paper, including the code....but nothing that tells me how to use the code. By any chance, are your the purchaser of the code?? Thanks in advance for any help you might have!
