You might want to consider getting the proper header panel for that nougat brown 944. It has the 944 turbo header panel and headlight covers on it, that's why the front profile of the header panel does not match the bumper properly.

I have a red 944 header panel and headlight covers that would be right for that car, you would just need to have them painted to match. Let me know if you want to work out a trade, I could use a spare turbo header panel anyway so it would work out OK for me.......

Yeah, I was of course just kidding.. But there is a bit of truth to it..

I was over in the SF Bay area for five weeks job hunting and got a good offer from a IT consultant company right smack dab in the middle of Silicon Valley.. I would be in the process of moving to California right now if only it wouldn't be such a hassle getting a visa.. Dream come true that then shattered.. Not fun.

So if anyone knows a girl looking to marry a Swedish guy I'll give whoever arranging it the commision of using the cup car on a track for a day. How is that for a commision if you are a Porsche nut?

Hey Anders, I know you're half joking but you may want to keep your immigration strategies private. Never know who's gonna see them in a public forum!

The people on this board crack me up....

Welcome aboard! Nice car!! Looks like your missing the center caps on your wheels? Check eBay if you need cheap replacements.

Yeah Luis, you are right.. It really is just a plan to get sex.

That "Getting married to stay in the USA" thing sounds like it would make a good movie.

I'm going to miss the dyno day -- that damn all day meeting on a Saturday. I've got plenty of storage space for now, so I'm in no hurry to dump it off -- just whenever is fine.

Boston went well -- we had a great time. We still haven't gotten past the whole long-distance non-dating problem, though. I'm still in Boston actually, we're about to get a snow storm....

Seriously I am getting custom seats made, I hate the factory seats. I need to do shocks and rear brakes and I need to remove cheap tinting from the rear window.
Ha ha... It's just that a woman who likes cars is a deadly combination. BTW, it's not all guys here -- there are some women p-car owners on this board.

Your shocks and brakes reminds me that I have to do mine, too. How to go about it depends a little on your driving style -- if you decide to do it yourself (most of us here are DIYers) I would call Paragon Products to get some advice.

Yes, we do know a bit about your car. I was actually considering buying it as a second Porsche before deciding to take on some other projects. Welcome to the board - I'm glad Eric's car found a good home!

Hey Joe: you're back in town! Do you miss Boston? or do you miss the warmth of the Palisades more (now that it's freezing outside)... Geez, we got a wallop of a storm over the past few days. P-car is now hiding underground at the office garage...

Not to hijack sweander's request but I wonder if anyone on here also knows any nice ladies around the San Diego area +/- 40-50 miles looking for a nice, disease-free Rennlister to hang out/commit to

And you're posting that on a largely male-dominated board. . . why?

And why on earth would you expect to get sex after getting married?!?!

And why would you leave Sweden to get it? I thought all the girls there were supposed to be perfect, blonde-haired, blue eyed snow bunnies!
