Might be more appropriate if they were not Porsches, but I figured it works for this forum.

I wish I could say the collection was going to stay together, but the red car is going to go up for sale soon (2.7L Chris White built motor in case anyone is interested).

As for the white car, it is a 1989 with an extensive history / mod list. Ledas, LR Turbo / MAF / Exhaust, head work, RH 3.6 wheels, big reds, 968 M030 sways, etc, etc. I'm not sure what the future holds for her, but I have always wanted a white 951 so I decided to pick it up (I still want a white 86 on white fuchs, but beggars can't be choosers, or something like that).

How about this: 1986, white with white fuchs

That would indeed fit the bill, but adding another would only yield a divorce, so best to stick with what I have for now.

It is a solid car for sure, like all 924/44/68s it needs a few things here and there, but with a nice three ring binder showing work done the list is a lot shorter than some I have worked on. Due to age I am going to swap the timing and balance shaft belts, last done a decade ago but with less than 5k miles on them. I took off the cover to check them, and while they look fine we all know it is cheap insurance to change them out.
