I'm thinking I should check my e-mail......


For the record, the owner of said dumpster has over 12 fully functional 5-speed 928 transmissions, some with LSD and a couple from a GT.

He told me he ran out of room, and he tossed three of them. What would you do?

About 50 feet from the dumpster is a sunroof delete shell in perfect shape he's turing into a centerpeice for a flower garden....he needs help.

Last week I caught him trying to connect a SAAB 900 Turbo motor to a 928 torque tube, something about a high MPG 928 project.

I'm not sure what to do.

Shamefully, I also would be in the dumpster looking for those three transmissions/transaxles.........as Mike Frye said, the first step is admitting I have a problem.

I see a Saab 9-3 ignition cassette in the dumpster. Do I win something? A spare transmission perhaps?

I like the speakers mounted to the dumpster.


Remember that scene in the DeathStar garbage compactor in the 1st real Star Wars.

I would have given my left nut for a wiring harness that weekend, unfortunately my wife had it with her.

Did the wife have the left nut or wiring harness?
