Well in my defense I broke my wrist several weeks ago which has left me with the inability to drive my cars and do any heavy lifting. So I spend far too much time searching for cars and posting here.

I would love to hear how many cars, and specifically which ones, you have bought & sold over your years as an expert.
many RLers have shared their stories, their current stables, and have let us "in" on their stories. When I look back at your original, and older posts, I can't find anything...
please enlighten me. I promise I will hold your opinions in higher value,... if you take the time to write down all the successes and failures that have led to your current state.
TIA,
=Steve

This is just under the engine shroud cylinder #6. This apparently was there for a long time. I have heard of mice making nests but this is the first one I had the displeasure of cleaning out. The engine is out of the car for a cleanup, oil leak fix and cleaning of the SAI ports. (glad we don't have this issue on the 964) Most of the primary stuff, Valve cover gaskets, timing chain gaskets and a bunch of other things. I can't believe how much junk that little thing crammed in there. At least it didn't chew any of the harness but what a mess.
I am guilty of not driving as much myself lately too busy building my track engine, working on others Porsche's and doing a lot of house modifications. New summer kitchen, bathroom and storage rooms. Hopefully that will be done soon so I can get back out and drive. I have to drop a 964 engine with tip trans next week. I have never dropped a tip trans and engine before so I have no doubt I will learn something new about these cars. I figured if I can't drive working on them is the next best thing.

re: Minty-- I tracked down & spoke to the original owner of the car today for about 30 minutes. Very interesting conversation. He's 83 years old and was also in the roofing industry like I am. He assured me he never had any paint/body work done car and has no reason to mislead me. He was a little miffed that the car got flipped, but glad it will get a legitimate home. Complete records dating back to the day he took delivery is exhaustive. I'm satisfied and will be taking delivery this week. I appreciate everyone's feedback!
