Yeal, Lol.
Downtown Vicenza in '76 off of the town square.....that was a short haircut in the 70's.
There were no speed limits on the Autostrada then.
I got pulled over by a Carabienari (Cop) going to PT one morning at 0530 driving thru town at about 90 mph. He just wanted to look at the car.

Actually he did give me a ticket....they write them and you pay on the spot.
I didn't have any real money (was going to morning pt) so he asked me what I had ... I had 1 Mille Lira 500 ( then about 2 bucks) so he wrote me a ticket for 2 bucks.
Man, that was the best 3 years ever.
Single, an apartment off post and a Maserati......pinch me I think I'm dreaming.

Don't miss the first Porsche, a 1966 912 but I do miss the second, a '72 "T" both have been long gone. Enjoy the newer cars, but have learned a lesson and our '83 SC" will stay and provides smiles continually.

what was wrong with the 912? I almost pulled the trigger on one earlier this year.

I almost bought another last year but my wife reminded me we have enough.... exception would be if I found a good "S" from '69-71. Remember you only live once

Absolutely nothing a nice car that we put many miles on .The one mistake was I put air in it for the family and we could either climb a steep grade or run the air.
