Nicely done!
It looks like the efforts were worth it. I guess you just had to flash the right amount of CASH, huh?

When's the first a/x?

So Martin, I understand you were working on the interior this weekend. Is this thing going to have a 914 interior or strictly sparse racing decor?

Nice thread, Martin!!

Ya know, I was upset that this car went west. I had only driven it once, but would have killed to buy it. I very glad to see someone taking excellent car of this beast. NICE JOB!! This is what I want to do to my car... someday.

Now about rebuilding a my pedal assy...

Daylight is good.
I can attest to Martin's state when he came to the autocross. In one of the pictures that I took he appeared to be asleep, with his helmet on, in the staging area. He didn't do so bad as he lets on either.
I think good things are ahead for you at the Porsche dealership. Besides I need a new neighbor with a couple wrenches.

Paging Martin Baker, Martin Baker to the garage please...
Martin's shift is changing again (for the better) so he will be working the next 8 days straight. Hopefully, soon he will be making progress on the GT project.
