Hello 928 Forum!

After 45 minutes on the access road I was finally directed to park on the rear lawn. Looking for any space I couldn’t believe that I saw a 928 with an empty space next to it! As the crowd started to head off I walked over to my car while smoking a cigar. A few minutes later a guy walks up with a huge unlit cigar & I ask him “need a light?” He says “as a matter of fact, I do” It was then that we both realized that we owned the pair of 928’s. What are the odds? I had the best time meeting Shawn & taking his advice I just signed up with the 928 Rennlist forum. Shawn, I hope you had a great run back to PA. Ron

It was a good drive, Don. I'm glad you found us! Take a few days or a couple weeks and settle into the rhythm of the place. Read through some of the build or repair threads. Maybe even do a search ("Search this forum" on the headings bar) to see if you answer any questions about what your car is or isn't doing.

Did you notice that little bongo van next to us was getting far more attention?

I might be wrong but I think I have seen Sharkitect on Instagram with 928 stories. Nice paint

I just looked on Instagram & didn’t find Sharkitect with anything to do with 928’s. Last night was the 1st time I ever combined Shark & Architect just for fun.
it’s amazing how forgiving black is. The previous owner must have been a detail freak but didn’t notice the dozen places the paint is nearly buffed down to the primer! From 30 paces it looks like new!

No it was just a deep dive on instagram and a man was posting shots of his newly acquired 928 in Ridgefield and mentioning how much he enjoyed it, nothing to do with your label here

That's cool! You never know where other sharks are hiding.
I'm in Wilton & Ridgefield is next door. I do have a friend in
town with an S4 that he bought new & years later he had
painted it Oak Green
