Default I do believe there are some thanks are in order

Sooo...I just got a call from Roger.... One of you went and did me a huge favor and have donated all 3 oil hoses to my cause. So thank you! It really made my day. Wasn't in a really good mood today at all untill I received that phone call. I'm still a bit in shock. Thank you so much! I'm as giddy as a school girl right now hahahaha.

It wasn't Roger. Someone called him and told him to send the hoses my way. He just called and told me the great news.

That's pretty sweet. I recently told my wife I would back off on ordering parts for a while, then she found out I just ordered more stuff cause I had to use her PayPal account. Unlike you, I am not smart and not lucky!

Hahahaha. I sooooo wish! But I don't think it could make it down there and back IF I was even to get her running. I have yet to go over the braking system or change the trans fluid. That and the timing belt does need done and I cannot afford a tow from wherever it breaks on me. Soon I tell ya, soon!

Okay. At least you are making headway. Keep us posted. I want to see the fuel pump I donated again some day.

The 928 in and of it self, is a PITA. The people are priceless, and the best people, I've ever met in my life own 928's! Best money I ever spent buying a car. Twice!!!!!!!!

I think it's cool that someone will take the time and energy to re-animate a car that most people wouldn't bother with or send to a breaker or crusher. I think it's cool to help those kind of people if you can. What I really meant was that I want to see he and his reanimated car in person someday.

I do agree with Polecat that 928 people are the best.

Give me a few minutes. I just logged in to finally post an update on my resurrection thread. I have made a lot of progress in the last few days. I'm sure everyone is going to love these pictures.

I cannot agree more with this statement. This community is amazing and I am proud to be a member of it. I will be paying it forward when I can to some other person that needs the help.

Saw your updated resurrection thread post. Looking forward to seeing you drive down to a GTG someday. Maybe you can come to Third Coast? Maybe the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
