I have a bad feeling as well it will be Calgary as well. But I hope I am way wrong, it would be great to be in the Grey Cup in Calgary.

That looks like a great buy. Congratulations, and welcome to rennlist!

It looks like you love red cars - and I'm not sure that is because you can see them will in the snow...

I see an Alfa Romeo in the background - what type is that? Spyder or Coupe?

And what's the other red one parked next to the 928? Looks like it could be British, but I don't recognize it.

Those aren't my cars, that picture is taken by the guy I bought the car from, he is a car collector/importer.

Sweet looking shark. Welcome to the tank! Check your fuel lines and replace them if there is any question. Also, being an auto...(I'm an auto guy too).. Be sure and check your axial crank play. It is the one very weak spot on the 928 autos... If you don't relieve flexplate tension, the engine can destroy itself (thrust bearing failure). Read the new member sticky post for all the details. Also search the term TBF or thrust bearing failure. There are easy fixes for this posssibly catastrophic condition. Either a PKclamp available from Roger at 928srus, or a Constantine Clamp available from Black Sea R&D. The PKclamp can be installed easily and is fairly inexpensive. The Constantine clamp is more expensive, and requires removing the torque tube (but it is beautiful and bulletproof). Congrats on the purchase!
