Marc White started an email thread recently that included a bunch of the old guard - guys who have been chatting 928s well before the advent of the Rennlist forums.
Figured this would be a way to get reaquainted.
Hopefully most of 'em haven't experienced brain atrophy to the point that they can't figure out how to post on a forum.

To bring them up-to-date, after selling my '79 convertible to Tarek about 5 years ago I bought the '94 GTS that I still own and drive daily.

I remember joining the mailing list around 1996 or so........for the 944S ![ducking](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/icon107.gif)
I think my "PRCHE944S" AOL screen name is still receiving the messages.
First forum I joined was the POC

"Fine Fifi, now that you have all the oils changed, how about that Forum post followed by the full body massage?"
Hi Gang, still spanking 99% of the traffic on the roads out there with the 928 supercars?

I'm sad to have to report that my stalwart '83S project finally went to our favourite wreckers, 928 International, after 9 years and a zillion miles. The scrambled cams were just not worth doing on such a scruffy example.
Originally purchased from Chris Smith at Devek Days in 1999, the beast took me all over heck and back. To many, many Devek Days, YEAH! To Wichita and back TWICE, YEAH! To Denver (OCIC) and back, YEAH! To Portland (SITH) and back, YEAH!
I have kept my shop manuals for that day when another one makes it into the garage. Yesterday, I saw two 928s on the road. I can take a hint...

Good to read from you again. I've seen you post here on rare occasions...
Now, get the hardbody supermodel masseuse on the table and make sure to take lots of pics. There's a DIY section here that would find much benefit in the how-to.

Do any of you old fogeys from the list know if "Jim from NH" is still around? I think he had a really cool red OB with a beautifully polished spider.

I believe I 1st joined the digest e-mail list for Porschefans around 1998, I got my 1st Porsche a 928s4 that year. I have been on both rennlist or audiworld ever since.

I believe I was on the mailing list ~1995 (does that sound right? Only a guess b/c of where I was living at the time....), then Porschefans and finally RL. I still get email at an addy I don't even use any longer.... My 928 Owners club membership number is 118 and all it says under my join date is "charter." What does all that mean? Nothing except I guess I was ~35 when AL invented the internet? When did DR and Jeannie have the first Sharks at the Lake..... I was there too.
What ever happened to Brian from Evansville, IN? Still selling cars?

I was mainly a lurker on the email lists from 1997 until I bought my GTS in 2000. I shifted mainly to the web forum in early 2002 - there was a little overlap for 6 months or so on both.
I spent 3 years looking for my GTS which I purchased as a consignment sale from Brian Buxton in Evansville, (who else remembers him? - he's still selling exotics quite successfully it seems!).
I recently learned thet Walt K is still pottering around somewhere selling the odd auto part here & there.

Bought the '86 in September of '97, got on PorscheFans, got the Devek catalog, found DR (fifteen minutes away!), charter member of Owners Club, charter subscriber to "928 Forum" (still waiting for the last issues), etc.
I still manage to post to the Forum now and then.
