Default Leroy *is* here.

I have him. I will be borrowing him for a time. Hopefully long enough to get my other car done. I am selling a stock pile of stuff for an unrelated and un-loved bmw. This should allow me to pay some bills and focus my attention properly.

While I have leroy I will enjoy the law put down about my using him. It is this:

Don't pull anything off with proper socal supervision. I made that last part up - it could be fun.

I have some stuff for the car that can improve it. A short shifter is one. Some new shifter bushings if thats needed. Some stainless steel brake lines.

I also have a short block (could be long block) that I could complete and shove in there. Seems only fair. I could donate my 78 cams as well possibly to put a little more oomph into the car.

But I love it. I love being in a 928 when it works properly.

Anyone on here is welcome to come by and see my new visitor.

This was discussed as part of the contract. I do not disassemble. I only improve and maintain.

Hey Brendan,

if you do come about to exchange Leroy's shifter for a short one, send me the **** and I will be happy to supply and install some new leather.

It has a wood one on there now. My idiot *** threw a perfectly good **** out when moving. I may have another somewhere.

Thanks Paul.

From what I can tell, it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy!

Have fun. OB's are a lot of fun to drive!

Good luck with it Brenden. I think you should make the underside look like your previous work.

Good Lord - this is like dropping Santa Claus off at Hannibal Lecter's house.

Congrats brendan! I saw Leon at Sharkoberfest - a great looking 928 and a color I don't see very often. I like that 928. Enjoy while you have this special visitor around!
