Three Wheelin'
I'd still have been boring, but the car was memorable. It's now owned by a commercial pilot down in Tacoma.

BTW - from John Walkers website
"John works on air-cooled Porsches only."
I was in Chris's on Friday and have to say they are leading the way in diagnostics on the water cooled. OMG I cant really elaborate on this but what I saw on the variocam and variocam plus diagnostics was simply mind blowing! Truely the best shop for your car (and mine!) they are doing SO much right now...this week, this month, this year.... its amazing - any locals NOT using them just dont know what you are missing...and without a doubt in my mind there is no way these things could be done at home... some things require the best tools available in the best hands with the most experience... dont know how to express that enough. I am a customer for life!

Thought I'd throw up a few new pics of her, just cleaned her up and took her for a spin.
I really would like to get the smoked pumpkins soon and find clear fronts...

IMO clear sides are better than smoked on your car - finding clear headlights is a bit of a challenge, but I found 2 sets here in this area over the course of about a year.... second set was in great shape - they also make clear rear blinkers
