Hey Joe, wait a minute there!
Just because ya sell the 928 - doesn't mean ya can't come out to party....

Well, that's an exaggeration. I think there are actually only about 400,000 relays and 600-700 fuses. Eighteen miles of vacuum lines is about right.

Joe, I feel your frustration and your pain. You will not fade into that good-night so easily, however. You were my inspiration to pursue this somewhat insane endeavor. You will always be welcome at any and all places and events to which I am a part. Also, if you get tired of that "Artistic Simplicity", give me right of first refusal, would ya? G

Nine2Eight (Morphing back to ThreeFiveSix)
this is why I bought a 914. But I plan on keeping the 928 too...
