Seems like there are a bunch of 944/968 cars in Charlotte in pieces, mine too (see my avatar).

Maybe it should be a "bring your favorite part" gathering...

Hahaha, as long as the part isn't a broken timing belt!

I could represent Australia by mailing in a balance shaft belt that's in 3 pieces and missing about 7 teeth.

Wrenching parties are not a bad idea, as good a reason as any to get together.

Gene,

I can help you with your wiring if you can help me figure out why the 87 won't start, I think I might have a vac leak......

I think you may be missing a tooth or two on your timing belt. That would scare me.

Anyone in CLT area want to paint my Vespa?

It isn't going so good. I am a lover not a painter. And it shows.
I'll let you autocross my 944.

Crap, spray the Vespa and you can have the race car for a weekend.
