Get a lift. Best thing I ever did! Makes working on and even in the car so much easier!! Plus you get an extra parking spot so the pup can hang out with ya (in his pen)

Awesome you are saving it no matter the direction you choose. There are a few speed yellow 996’s in Charlotte but always room for more!

Currently for sale in the UK. I drove it a couple of years ago, she was a quick old girl !! Rare over here, non-sunroof, manual C2 in SY.
Josh Sadler started Autofarm back in the 70’s, he’s now retired, but was one of THE most knowledgeable individuals in the world when it came to the ‘73 2.7RS, ‘74 RS, the ST etc. A lovely chap too.

Speed Yellow on the 996 always looks good love my 1999 cabriolet and when I had the hardtop it looks like I have two different cars 😀

Things are moving slowly, but I did add something to the garage that will help the project along.

I went over all the options, the small lift has some limitations, but it gives me some flexibility to go back to a three car garage when the project is done. So it might be a "cute' lift, but it works for me (or at least I hope it does given that I have not used it yet).
