I was trying to buy that, he told me he had an offer, but if it didn't go through, he would get back to me. I told him I had cash waiting, an empty trailer & was ready to head out, then he re-posted with out telling me, and I replied again, with pix of $100 bills and then nothing
Course, now we have a bigger issue to fix.

Very nice!

I'll be down at RA with the Peachtree Region the end of this month, if that is the same event you are planning to attend, and I'll be on the lookout.

That was a great car and a lot of fun to build! There is a LOT of trick stuff on that car, let me know if you have any questions. I seriously thought about buying that back but too many other toys and hobbies these days.

Hey Jon - would love to know everything about it. It looks like the foglight harness got damaged at some point and they are no longer working. Is the S2 LSD box stock? You did a great job on the car for sure!

Once he bumped the ad I was on it pretty quick and went down there in person that weekend to pick it up. The seller was pretty easy to work with - lived in a beautiful home in Tampa.

Is it 968 specific? I've never parted a 968.

The difference is where the rear bumper wraps around.

Very nice, Josh. What will be the deciding factor in which you take to the DE? I'm planning on taking my turbo, but there's a chance I'll take the new 968, instead.

Byron - ouch. That looks rough. Looks like you broke the torsion tube mount, too. I actually have an old quarter from a Turbo S if they could be modified. Bought it from Josh years ago, and the guy who is going to paint my TS indicated that he won't need to replace it.

Would you mind giving us a list of these tricks ?
I am constantly upgrading my track used 924S and would love to learn more.
Would really appreciate it.
Nice car !!!

Looked great out there Josh!

Unfortunately I was only able to snap a couple pics of your run group. I got a little distracted.
