Default Anyone here in St. Louis area with about 5 928's, a 968, a 944, a 924carreragt conv?

I work at Dobbs Tire and Auto, and today while dropping somebody off i passed a shell service station with a late gold 944, and a red 924 carerra gt conversion. after i dropped the guy off i drove back to the shell station and asked the attendant who's those were... she then refered me to a picture of this guys house with a ton of 928's in his front yard and said that he had about 12 porsches, and it seems like they are all front engined porsches. so i asked where he lives, and i drove to his house (on company time lol, it wasn't far) and drove past his house, it wasn't hard to tell which house it was because there were a ton of porsches in the driveway... the guy lives off of olive and white road in chesterfield, MO around 40/64. anyone know who this is?! i'm sure he's got a rennlist account...lol ~kirk

i'm obsessed, here is a satalite photo of his house at least 3-4 years ago, in the front drive (where right now about 7 porsches are parked) that white car is a 928 which he still has... one of these nights i'll have to stop by and say hey!

I wonder if that is Garrity's place... he used to have quite the reputation before he burned a few folks and got out of the business.

It sounds like some of our wildest dreams... but really, that level of investment isn't all that grand. He might only have $60k in all 12 cars... so somebody with one new 997 might have more money invested in Porsches than this guy.

Still... 12 waterpumpers is really cool.

Where are you, buddy... there has to be a story behind your 12 p-cars!

Regards,
I bet thats who it was. Just because you have 12 cars doesnt mean any of them ran. He was notorious for putting miles on customers cars instead of his own that didnt run.


btw... whats up scott long time no see, rob from stl!

No, he doesn't have any 911's, they're all front engines.
