Default Goodbye old friend...

Well it's done...I've sold my beloved "S" tonight.
Hopefully she will have a nice home but I know that it won't compare to the garage that I've built for her 3 years ago.

The good news is that I've found a nice looking turbo and I'm picking her up next weekend...pics to follow as soon as she's in her new home

Guys...registration is presently disabled on the website, I just don't have time to run it right now.

Joe, how's the S2000? You missed the GTG a couple of months ago...
We were swapping cars and after driving Richard's 951, I started getting antsy
...First project? ....Nothing right now I hope, I'm too busy. [Keeping fingers crossed]
If it does need anything it's going to have to wait or I'm sending it to Jim.

s2k has been great - only 7k miles in last year. still beating the DD.
Yeah, I feel bad about missing the GTG.

sending to Jim - the only civilized thing to do.
sliding around under a 944 is getting harder and harder...

...She's in the garage tonight after I drove her back to NC from Omaha, NE. She's Grand Prix White with a dark leather burgundy interior '86. I drove her about 1300 miles in about 36 hours to get her home. She's definatly worth it and the pics don't due her justice. I'll take some better one in the daylight.
The paint is original and in almost showroom condition. Interior is also excellent. Outstanding condition for a 21 year old car....boost is incredible! Full documentation from day 1 and I have the original window sticker!
AUTOTHORITY MASS AIR FLOW SETUP with stage 2 chips, and it came with lots of goodies. It has a few small mechanical items to be sorted out but nothing major.
I am a little tired from my trip, some better pics to follow.
Short details..

If I knew you were gettin it in Omaha I would've had you stop at my parents store and bring back some Nebraska beef. Best steaks in the world!

Car is beautiful!! Better bring it to the drive in 3 weeks!
