Not sure if you need the work done right away but if you can wait until spring, I'm sure we could set up some kind of wrenching gtg at someone's garage. There are several Columbus guys that have very nice garages with every tool you would need to do the work you need done. It would be a fun way to meet people and we could get all those parts put on your car, for free.

Did you recently buy this car off of craigslist or are you selling it on craigslist? I remember seeing an N/A body with an S/S2 motor for sale a couple weeks ago.
I bought this car off CL back in aug of 08, I did recently post it up on CL on the 10th (http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/1545593134.html), but i've been on the fence about selling it or fixing it, I know it will sell better if i do the belts and such, but if i do them i'll not want to sell it. lol

If any of you from the c-bus area want to stop by and take a look at it and give me a second opinion I wouldn't mind it. I'm on the southside (parsons and obetz)

I'll start a dedicated thread, should i d so in this forum or in one of the other sections?

I would love to help wrench, and meet other 944 owners in the area, keep me posted/ give me a pm if anything is worked out.

Viperns, I'll talk to one of the 951 guys down your way and see if he would be up for hosting some kind of gtg at his place/garage. I'll send you a PM when I hear back from him. Then maybe we can start a dedicated thread to see who all would be interested in coming out. Most of the 951's I know of in the area are put away for the winter though.

ZW 944, do you happen to drive down Snouffer Rd to Olentangy Rd. to 161 in the evenings? Pretty sure I've seen you pass me a couple times when I was in the turbo. I was wondering if the driver I saw was on Rennlist...

OSu944, sounds like a plan to me. Love the rims on your car what are they (nvm saw them in your sig). There is that southeast 944 poll thread, I'm sure we can start one of those for columbus/central ohio area.

zw, will keep you posted.

No, that is not me, but I have seen another 944 with the exact same color combo and wheels around town. He tried to street race me once after we both left the gas station, I havn't talked to him before though.

I often am driving around Wothington Galena Rd. High st. and 161 though.
