Brian,

I got this one because I hated to twin screw either of the other two red ones, they are in such great shape, and with low miles, I wanted to keep them as original as possible - drive a few hundred miles a year and just appreciate them when I'm down. This one has just had the top end redone by a Porsche dealer since they had replaced the timing belt and water pump and the water pump failed immediately. So, from everything I can tell it is in great mechanical shape, but has 143K, so I don't feel as bad putting the twin screw on it. I get that on June 15th - I've waited a long time, but I think it will be worth it.

I'll continue to drive the 82 "semi" daily as well, between the two of them, they should last me for a long time and I won't get stressed out if I have to have one down for repairs for a while.

This is the last one, I'm afraid, I have neither garage space, nor does my wife have any further capacity for forgiveness... I am pretty attached to her and I would hate to trade her for a car. (but you know there is always something your can add, even to a good car.

I'm very slowly making progress on the 90 for my wife, the body and interior are pretty much done, I just need to put the engine back together - heads have been rebuilt and put it in. Time, time, time...

If you're ever in the area, please stop by, I still feel that I owe you something for your help with the red one.

I'll probably never sell any of them. I've had several cars in my life that I wish I still had, so I'm hoping not to make that mistake again. Thanks for comment however.
