Ok I'm going to see the car Friday at 2:30pm with a camera ready. And a screwdriver for your part Raj. Get ready for a bunch of pictures again.

FRporscheman

Oh great now we're all curious what part Raj wanted. It's OK you don't have to tell us.

But don't forget my parts We're best buddies, Richard and me!

Lord_Galva

Well, Raj's part should be easy to remove if it's there. I am going to have to ask permission from the CHP officer watching my every move. The car is still evidence.

RajDatta

Rich, I really appreciate you doing this. Hopefully I can return you the favor some day.
Lets just say the part is not available through Porsche...
Regards.
Raj

ehall

If it's in evidence, I'd be surprised if you can do anything but take some pictures.

Lord_Galva

Ok I had to wait an hour and a half for the officer to show up but I did get a chance to see the car in person.
All I have to say about it is.
THANK YOU GOD!

Its one thing to see the pics, its another to stand there and say out loud "I survived this?!?" I didn't mean for it to come out but it did. I'm just glad I didn't cry. I'm finaly over the car. Unfortunatly it was dark in the warehouse and the dang auto focus on the camera sucks. Everything in the cabin was destroyed and the passenger side was non-existant. The engine however was untouched and probably would have started. Good salvage material. I was so concerned about trying to find whatever I could I forgot what people wanted. Once the car goes off of evidence hold I'll start picken and pullen. I was able to retrieve my keys, (the little light still works) the towel the delievery sign sat on, and the clutch pedal. (a little momento) I kept a very clean car so there wasn't much in there. The only thing I had to abandon was the vehicle history/service records. They were trapped in the glove box which was blocked by the passenger side.

I can pee again. (for real this time)
I would write my name in the snow but I do live in California.
Party is comming up soon and I'm so Jazzed up for it.
Also the adrenaline rush is crazy. They took the tube out (which didn't hurt) and I felt like I could fly. I wish I could have some procedure done so I could walk. Where is Dr. Crusher anyway? (Star Trek joke)

Lord_Galva

YESSSS!!!!
Both tubes are out and the weather forcast looks great!
I can't wait for Saturday!
I hope to see as many of you guys as possibe.

PorscheDude1

Dont drool on the cars...

FRporscheman

Dr. Crusher won't be born for another 330 years, duh...

Lord_Galva

Its going to happen. Drool and nice cars mix.

I was checking around pca zone7's site to find out what the autocross schedule is. I get to Loma Prieta's site and it's once again being sponcered by my mechanic. I then discovered he has a website and on the site he has pics.
I have gone though all of them and I discovered my car in about 5-6 pics.

By the way, I think 968s with cloth script seats are pretty rare in the US.
Good luck with your continued recovery.
