My dad is a retired Architect with a whole lot more money and experience than me hes had a 1986 930 and a 2003 996TT I think its in the car's best interest.

I was going to ask if you filled his stocking with $100.00 dollar bills but then I saw that he has lots of money. You're good.

Never even made it up to Austin. If you have another shark in (2) years, I'll buy you a round.

But you are not saying what your dad gave you in return. Maybe the 996TT? :-)

Thats kind of a curse and a gift all wrapped up in one.
Now, he can pay to restore it, and you can borrow it from time to time.
Maybe you can buy another one when you make it big doing those web cam shows.

So what was your dad's reaction?
Either "You're the greatest son a man could ever want."
or "Uhhhhhhhh, thanks?"
or "Think you're passing on that to me?"
Curious minds want to know!

I'm glad my Son has a 944S.
All kidding aside, that was a pretty cool thing to do, IMHO....

It was something along the lines of "You should have given it to me a long time ago I could of fixed it and let you borrow it from time to time cause you have no idea what your doing your going to destroy the poor car"
