No joke this is my ticket number from lunch at Laguna Seca on Saturday (Motorsport Reunion). I guess it was meant to be, me and my 993.

^^^ I was happy when I received hotel parking ticket 956 on one of my travels. That one is next level.

Meanwhile, I fixed the stuck sunroof...

That type of offset is pretty common on a lot of vehicles here in redneck country (Niagara County, NY)

Unfortunately I can't share much as the work being done in Florida and I'm in Costa Rica for a few months.

I spent a lot of time looking at threads here and elsewhere about the various sunroof delete options. Cost ruled out replacing with a genuine roof. Some of the sunroof panels seemed to be a bit hit and miss. In the end, this one worked for my requirements. First saw it on the Island Works Sweden YouTube channel and the corresponding thread Porsche 964 - 200kg challenge here on Rennlist. Roof panel was sourced from the same place which is DRS Development. Jan was easy to deal with and a quick phone call helped remove any fears about this option.

I can't really elaborate on the price. I bought the panel late last year and who knows what has happened to prices these days. Other body work stuff still in progress so I haven't received an invoice for the roof work yet.

First did the airbag frame replacement due to the brake beep problem. It was surprisingly easy, took 20 minutes. Thanks to this forum!

Then off to Costco! Compared to its chubby neighbors it can be considered a “Not-so-widebody”

It's always incredible seeing a picture of a 993 next to other cars. Almost hard to believe!

Everything in America has gotten bigger, not just cars - homes, food, people, TVs, phones - and the list goes on.
