Default Got the 951 out this weekend & new addition (with pics)

Had to go home on Thursday, so I thought it would be a good time to replace the upper radiator hose (had a hole in it) and go for a little drive. Then I went down to Nashville today to pick up my newest 84 (thanks again for the ride Thurston). All in all I would say it was a good weekend.

1st, pics of my 951 just outside of its resting place at my brother's barn.





and here she is resting next to her roomie, the old 84, notice the similarities


and now, the new addition

Looking good. The pic of the NA with the hood open, and lights half up is great! It looks like the car is either just waking up, or about to fall asleep, LOL!!

Neither, it went to sleep a long time ago, and I doubt if it ever wakes up again. It's interior will live on in the new 944 though.

Here's why, sorry about the bluriness, it's the best the cheap camera could do with the lighting.

That engine looks slightly dirty. Maybe you should try getting it steam-cleaned.

No fun at all. I was thinking of steam cleaning it just to see what's under all that crap, do you think I should cover up all the electricals?

What size are those Ronals on that burnt car? I know that Campeck is looking for a set of 16X8 rears.

I think they are 16x8, but I'd have to check to be sure.

Tifo, you beat me to it.

Jerad, very interested in the rear Ronals if 16x8. Drop me or Campeck a PM please if interested. Could also trade for a set of 7's or early phone dials. Thanks! Albert
