Spectular till i hit snow in Bangor Maine ... 13 states and 3 provinces in 3 1/2 days. Wish i had more time. Actually forgot to stop for pics in each location but will post up a few pics ... Also have a 1976 BMW that I am trying to decide what to do with... Sell or have some fun in autocross or run Targa Newfoundland. Anyone know that race event?

I watch the recap of the Targa on Speed each year. Looks like an awesome event.

Michael:

It was a great 911 day today. Thanks for letting me ride shotgun.

I was curious: what kind of efforts are being made to bring back your 911 to 100% stock?

If not already, join PCA (porsche club america) and get involved, we have a very active chapter here in NC. There is an open house at Renngruppe Motorsports just north of you (in Lexington) tommorrow discussing Porsche vintage race cars. They will be rolling out some of their collection and it will be a spectacular get together. I will have to miss it sadly.
Whalebird: Will you be at cars and coffee next week?. Michael and I know its a complete downgrade to pull you off the BRP for a Saturday, but we hope to see you at Northlake Mall.

You are quite welcome. You don't look as good in front of my car as I do!
It will never be 100% stock, too much money.

Smoken 911 badges Bill M. Can't say same for the other two photos you posted.

Nice car! Weather is getting nice for the Targa too. I am a fairly new 3.2 owner myself although I have been on this board for many years.
