Heh.
First time I saw this was in 1997 at an indy's garage in Denver who was working on my first 911, an '85.
It was a crappy xeroxed copy pinned to his community bulletin board.
I thought it was the funniest self-deprication I'd ever seen.
I made an even crappier copy of it at the time and have held onto it over the years.
I've been looking for an 'original' ever since.

Anyone know where I could find the original (or a nice high quality version)?

Thanks!

(double heh - the phone number leads to some poor unlisted shmo in Chicago. And, no - I didn't call him.)

That's funny.

If I wanted a clean copy of that ad, I'd be asking you to make one up for me! :-)

Yes. If you prang a client's Stradivarius during refurbishment, you better have a fast getaway car.
Like the new Porsche 964.

What the ad means:

Works of art last forever, take careful traditional workmanship, and make sweet music when you play them.

To quote from Keats, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever."

(Sorry, but by training and profession I am a literary critic.)

I'm sick of New Jersey guys coming over the bridge and stealing all the Philadelphia women!! I would have thought "Jersey Shore" had ended that. Part of that video (outside of Starbucks) was filmed < 10 minutes from me. I will have to be on the lookout for that car and try to help out Chaz with his warning lights.
