Thanks for the compliments! Today was the first time out on the new rubber. Chose to go with the Yoko S.drive and see how they do. I really liked my two prior sets of AVS ES100s. Forgive how dirty she is, don't really want to wash her until the hood is back on (which hopefully will happen this week!)

Jason, the hatch is actually off a 968. You can tell because of the third brake light in the center trim piece. If it was off an S2, it wouldn't have that (which would have been nice as it obstructs use of the key to open the hatch...)

Uh, Marine it's possible that you're missing a piece of that car.

Sooo......do contributors to the rebuild get free rides? (I'm guessing that valve made its way onto the car?) Any plans on bringing her back East?

Chuck,

my heater is controlled by your donation! Thanks again! No plans on returning to Hunt Valley, but if I'm ever in the area, you are more than welcome to take her for a spin.

Dude, I thought you were getting those stick on 6 piston caliper covers...

seriously though, your car is looking great, glad she is running, and yes that gauge WAS dead, but I am keeping it and using it for something else.. no worries!
