Shane-
Good man for telling your story. You've got to admit that Jim, Mark, and everyone else at 928 Int'l are class acts.

"Class acts"?? My last order came to the house in a Heineken box!! I got a chuckle out of that!

But seriously, they are great folks to deal with, and the fraternity of the 928 community convinced me that buying one was the right thing to do. I'm so glad I did.

Called Shane who had turned around with H to assist me back in Portland, and he met me in Longview..drove me around to a parts store where I picked up another battery to get me home. He also followed home to ensure I got there (about 1 hour out of his way)...so Shane..this BUD's for you...or whatever choice you want next time we hook up..
Thanks.

What a great community of 928 owners we have here....

Tom I remember seeing you bent backwards under my dash bleeding the air and crud out of my master cylinder!! So it was my pleasure to return the favor, driving you over to get a battery without contorting myself around into weird positions to do it!

Thank you!!

And thank you Brendan! You and Heinrich helped me make short work of a radiator R&R, bleeding the slave and pulling the exhaust so we could check the clutch adjustment!!

My guess is that you manage more beds than Mark could ever sleep in

That's my job

Glad I could help and glad another 928 is running around Alaska.
I'll have to visit soon, it's been about 10 years since I visited that beautiful state!

Check out the 928 Frapper Map, you will see I live on an Island where the max speed limit is 30mph, it would be cruel to bring a 928 here.

No my 928's stay in Washington at my vacation home down there.

Good going Shane....can't keep an Idaho boy down. Shame you moved to Alaska. Roads probably about the same though.

Good luck on your new adventure.
