Red face Engine Fell Out:(

So I go away for a week's holiday and come back and Kermit's engine fell out

Oh well...


Not going to give away much yet but suffice it to say we did install a 996GT3/TT rear main seal:P

As part of the Secret Mission, I found these pictures on the camera (Alex doesn't know I'm posting them). The whole thing doesn't make sense to me yet, but maybe we're developing some kind of military vehicle?








It was 115F at the General Patton museum in Arizona when these were taken.
