I own a shop in the Atlanta area and work on a few of these cars, there is NOBODY in this area that works on these cars that I would recommend over Jack, he da man.
I had Ryland's of Marietta PPI my 968. Outstanding work and right on the mark. Dunno if Ryland knows 928s though. I did buy some spare relays from Hennesey's before I left civilzation. For a dealership, they were very accommodating. It's good to know that they are 928-friendly.

If Chuck ever emails me the pictures I will be happy to post them.
Great car - shame its a 5 speed - we can always convert it later when you get bored of being taken by the GTS auto.

Few more of the first day on the road from Atlanta back to Birmingham. Great day to drive! Perfect weather and stopped by Talladega Motor Speedway with my dad to tour the museum and take some pics.

Second day after a night of Football watchin in Birmingham. 650 Miles back to Dallas from there. Weather started off bad then turned out Beautiful about half way there. What an absolute blast!! Got to spend more time with my dad in a car than I had since I was a kid and we took turns driving getting to know the car!! Here's a few of that second day that ended up back in Dallas the night before New Years Eve. I think half the fun of getting a "new to you" 928 is the drive back home. Memories for a lifetime!!!

Happy New year to all on the list!!

Hey Chuck

I read on TMZ that as part of the divorce proceedings Denise Richards is looking to get the car back that Charlie gave her as a gift!

Nice find, beautiful car! and what a great memory to have with your dad

Hey Chuck!
That 'Charlie Car', (AKA your Silver Bulit II) sure looks like a beauty and an awesome ride!
I couldn't agree more about that 'bonding drive home' to really get acquainted with your new 'mistress!'
Special memories for you as well, having your Dad along! How'd ya swing that Talladega track shot, eh? Fun times!

Yes, I suspect the Charlie Car will be in the running for the coveted DFW Third Coast trophy come November...



Happy all worked out for you with Jack at Hennessy.
Funny thing is, I even know Gretchen, I mean Gretel, that white '87 S4 that was in the shop!:



To your Charlie Car:

Wishing you nothing but the best with your new ride. Just be wary of Silver Bulit becoming a jealous shark and stable-mate!
Miles & miles of smiles, Chuck! See ya 'round town!
Kim
