Well in my defense I broke my wrist several weeks ago which has left me with the inability to drive my cars and do any heavy lifting. So I spend far too much time searching for cars and posting here.

I would love to hear how many cars, and specifically which ones, you have bought & sold over your years as an expert.

many RLers have shared their stories, their current stables, and have let us "in" on their stories. When I look back at your original, and older posts, I can't find anything...

please enlighten me. I promise I will hold your opinions in higher value,... if you take the time to write down all the successes and failures that have led to your current state.

TIA,

The engine is out of the car for a cleanup, oil leak fix and cleaning of the SAI ports. (glad we don't have this issue on the 964) Most of the primary stuff, Valve cover gaskets, timing chain gaskets and a bunch of other things. I can't believe how much junk that little thing crammed in there. At least it didn't chew any of the harness but what a mess.

I am guilty of not driving as much myself lately too busy building my track engine, working on others Porsche's and doing a lot of house modifications. New summer kitchen, bathroom and storage rooms. Hopefully that will be done soon so I can get back out and drive. I have to drop a 964 engine with tip trans next week. I have never dropped a tip trans and engine before so I have no doubt I will learn something new about these cars. I figured if I can't drive working on them is the next best thing.

Yup!
Priced for a quick sale. On BAT it would have been $80k like that Martini turd.

Complete records dating back to the day he took delivery is exhaustive. I'm satisfied and will be taking delivery this week. I appreciate everyone's feedback!
I’m late to the party here but congrats! I’m glad you did it, you would’ve thought about it forever if you didn’t. The car looks insane. Enjoy it man!
