Wanted to share this story with the 993 crowd. Some of you may remember it from Excellence a few years back. I reworked it and put it online, and more importantly put up most of the photos from the shoot. Due to space constraints magazines usually only run 5 to 7 photos.

Definitely. Good to see again.

Check my 2012 "Excellence's 'Turbo Cab' feature" thread for update on its auction, etc.

Can't disagree with thread posts there by the engine installer, TurboKraft's Chris Carroll:

I'm not the biggest Cab fan in the world, but that color combo and proper turbo wing looks great, especially in those photos. Thanks for sharing.

thanks for posting these photos. I took over ownership of the cab from John and have been enjoying every moment. I had previously owned an 95 Iris Blue Cab for 20 years and dreamed of modifying into a Cab Turbo since Porsche didn't offer them (with the exception of some special order one offs). When I saw this car, it had everything I wanted done to my own. It's pretty much the same car but I couldn't help doing a few "tweeks" to improve the ride. I get a lot of looks and puts a smile on my face overtime I take her out. Here are a few photos of her today, although not as well done as Zach's. The last was at the Treffen event in Tahoe.

I think I saw this car on 24th street in Noe Valley November 7.

Can anyone see my post?.................

Yes. Opened without difficulty. The car looks good but not 7 figures (whether Euros or USD) good. YMMV.

That original turbo tail looks great on a cab.

That was me PiB993. I wish I saw yours. I like Black on Black Turbos. I hang out there regularly so maybe we can hook up sometime.

Sure! If I see you/your car up there I will introduce myself. There is a great magazine cigarette shop up there that sells all the hard to find automotive magazines. Sports Car Digest and Autosport to name a few.

It was a great day - a car enthusiast friend of mine was visiting from the east and I said wait a minute there is a controversial car on the other side of the street we should check out. Then I was able to send him the articles that have been written about your car. THAT WAS THE CAR WE JUST SAW.

rockdoc: I'd like to meet up sometime. Here is my '97 turbo cab (in San Jose):

WhiteCab (A.K.A., 600RR) ^^ OT: Get yesterday's email ("tech bulletins and manuals hyperlinks for you")?
Speaking of mail -- re: last month's "J - will get the hardware off to you soon" ... FYI: nothing received.
On-topic... Fun for zmayne to remind of that thread ^^ & your old reply to me:
