I just called Greg's shop, he's out on a parts run.

Knowing Greg, he would get tossed three states over by the tornado, get up, brush himself off, look around, say "Well this sucks" and start walking.

He would still show up with the correct parts too.

And he would make several stops like this.

Thanks for thinking about my welfare guys.
Yep, been chasing parts, got a bunch of pretty stuff from the powder coaters and platers for a few 928's.
I will make a thread tomorrow when I get to the shop and my camera.
Next stop is the painters for the lettering on the cam covers and intakes (2)

Greg, I was in the garage last night and didn't hear about these tornadoes until this morning. So, you were having crazy storms like this and still took time to help me with my brakes?

If mother nature was going to bitch slap me I doubt it would have mattered if I was on the phone or not.

Well, no.
We were discussing offline who was going to get your car.


I've been paging through this site - the first shot almost looks staged with the huge twister right next to a tanker!!

Pretty sure it will be on Ebay or craigslist soon after I die, so you all get a shot at it, Be fair with my kids though, that is why uncle Mitch is getting the tools. lol
