Welcome! Btw, it's a tradition for newbies to let us know a little about their ride, and post a photo or two

I had yet to figure out how to post pictures of my baby. So until I do, she is a '96 Carrera 2, polar silver. I purchased it in the Boston area in May, then drove it back to Minnesota. A dream ride for me.

I am the former owner of a '81 SC. I sold it several years back and finally replaced it with what I consider the finest 911.

Welcome!

As you will begin to know [fast] that this board is addictive.

What format are your pictures in? Digital? Print? We would be more than happy to guide you through the 2 step process. Anything to see some pics!

I uploaded a picture but don't see it on my post. Is there another step?

I think the oil change was an easier job than posting a picture

Upload in the reply thread-also, make sure the size is 20kb? or less. Where are you in MN? I'm newbie too here in Rochester. Hoping to perform my first oil change this weekend-fingers crossed

Ok, here another attempt.

I am located in Minneapolis. The oil change was quite straight forward. It took about 2.5 hours.
