Just reviewd the Slov's take on the article (not fluent but undertsand)...It appears Gearge is their new hero...even though he is American. Who ever thought the "RED DRAGON" could bring about world peace!

Cheers

The garage is NOT Tim's. If that were the case, Tim would sell all those cars, his business, and live in his reefer closet full time.

All joking aside, the owner of those cars is one of Tim's customers. He let Tim use it for the photo shoot.

ST, I when I saw you posted, I was expecting a rant about the car's actual history....LOL

Those three vintage Porsches are worth almost three Enzos.One of the cars won Targa Florio,placed 2nd in Nurburgring,etc........Another of those cars won Nurburgring,Targa Florio and a few other historical races.The twin cam engines in some of those cars are worth $125-250K!!!!!!!!!They have the original cases and everything.The guy that owns those cars own about 20 others just like them.Yes he is rich dude.Screw the reefer closet,we are talking reefer warehouse that Cheech and Chong would be envious of

Comeon, I got plenty of action in my college cars. First was a 1974 Cal Special with a sunroof, original diamond tuck interior, and a 1914 motor that I built that spanked the GTI new car stuff around campus.....in the early 80's. Then I had a 1978 Subaru DL Wagon.......Subie Sex I think was the term.......

It's not the car, my friend.

ST,

Know that the history of this car and it's internal build is incorrect. Many things were changed to make the story seem interesting.

When all is done with this car, the scriviner/photographer of this article will be held accountable for accuracy of the next article, if they are interested in a follow up drive/photo shoot.

They are selling magazines, not history books.

ST, keep me posted on your new car. I've got a few friends that have bad *** 96-97 air cooled 911's that know their ****.

Regards,

George

OOPS,

The 1974 car was a California Special 1974 bug with gold exterior and diamond tuck interior. Some of you would know this car, as its worth some bucks today.

I got tired of getting spanked by the new Rabbit-GTI cars on campus. I was a poor military scholarship weekend warrior student. I rebuilt the original 1600cc motor into a 1914cc GTI spanking machine. This was done in a red wagon over a couple of weekends with some good friends from the engineering college. This bug was passed on to my brother when he started college and I was a senior. I purchased a 1978 Subaru so I could get onto the beaches and ski when the weather kept others home. I put over 200K on this awesome car and still love Subaru's.

If I could only have one car it would be a 2.5 Turbo Outback.

George

This isn't on you, but ya know, knowing that they embellished for the sake of "The Story" pretty much means I'll never buy that POS wrag again.

Like I said, that's not an aspersion cast upon you, George, or amyone associated with the build.
