Thanks, Chris! The red stitching complements the red leather accents in the interior.
I have a vision in my head of what I want in a 928.
With the Red Witch, I am well on my way.

Great thread Seth. Looks like you have been bit hard!
Nice 928 you will have soon.

I see your in Blacksburg, VA. My old stomping grounds. Pulaski native here.

Thanks jwyatt8171!

Oh yeah! I have liked the 928 since I was a kid. Now, as an adult, I appreciate it for what the 928 is, an excellent GT car. It wasn't until a couple of years ago that I realized I could afford one.

Now...I have the Red Witch.

Unfortunately, I am not in VA. I am in SC.
I have done four years in VA, in Norfolk.

Nothing wrong with being in SC

Means you're closer to SITM.

Oh yeah, I LOVE my home in SC. I meant unfortunately because I had to disagree with him.

SITM is only a two hour drive from my home.

A common lament. But at least you are close... As you know, "To be a Virginian either by Birth, Marriage, Adoption, or even on one’s Mother’s side, is an Introduction to any State in the Union, a Passport to any Foreign country and a Benediction from Above."

M. Requin: Ummm...yeah. Virginia was not bad, but my time in Norfolk and Virginia Beach were not exemplary.


Well, the Red Witch is now legally mine. Tax, title, registration, tags, and insurance.
All I need now is the car.

I can see light at the end of the tunnel.
One week to go.
The Red Witch is not done, but the shop has found no more hiccups or issues.
Soon, baby, soon...

Based on my short tenur of ownership, and what I have read on rennlist a 928 is never really "done", it's merely ready to enjoy until the next project/repair/idea.

Very true!
However, in this context, 'done' means I can go get the Red Witch and drive her.
