Eccentricity can be made up in number of 928s, and compounded by how many pieces they are in.

Given the amount you've dumped into your 928, you aren't eccentric any more.


Before you argue that you're not weird....I still have that picture of you spread across your hood.

That's a good idea.

I think I'll go over to Rogers and see if there is something that can be done with that burnt '87 and I could fabricate a small/portable one out of body panels.

This could be fun.

Andrew, maybe its just as well. I have refrained from sending my Devek radiator because it looked like the shrine might be a bit -- um -- cozy for that. Maybe a bigger, better shrine that can take my offering will be built to replace it? Who will step up to the challenge?

I know a couple local guys that may have a good collection of engine parts to get the new "keeper of the shrine" get started...

Geez. If the shrine needs to swallow a Devek then we'll need a whole back end and hatch of a sacrificial shark as a place of offering.

Brian, hope yer shark will stop pissing all over your garage.
