Damn, Steve, sorry to hear of this. Glad you weren't hurt but hope the insurance company makes you whole.

Best of luck to you Steve, and hang around for the heck of it.

I still have Rufus' original tail on the road, so you can think of it as part of him is still on the road until Todd finishes the rebuild.

Sorry to hear about the untimely demise of your TT Steve.
But very glad to hear that you survived intact!

You, Waldo, and Rufus were some of my favourites on the forum .......
Maybe there will be an Arena Red number three for you somewhere down the road?

Best wishes,
Max

Steve it's been a pleasure having you around all these years. Even at your darkest hour you continue to be humble and positive. Best wishes with your future hobbies.

Well, in the end, as is noted here and elsewhere, you're OK, and the ins pays the amount you agreed on with them. The car goes on in spirit, albeit in a newer tub. Hopefully you'll buy another car to scratch your itch, and hopefully, it's another 993 or other Porsche variant to give you reason to continue on here on this forum.

Looks like LA Dismantlers had a change of heart. Hopefully they paid Steve a fair price.
