Hi Matt,

Very nice Targa. You guys will have a great road trip. Be sure to wave as you go by the La Porte exit on the Toll road on your way home. That's my exit.

I'm fairly new to the 964 also and not so mechanically inclined to do all my own maintence past the basic stuff. There doesn't seem to be anyone in our area that is really good with these cars so I will have to get up speed if mine has issues. Let me know if you know of a good mechanic for these cars. Thanks and enjoy.

Nice car..... however, I'd recommend that you throw in some 2-lane highways on that trip... both I-80 and I-90 will get a little tedious for the P-car in the Midwest

Beautiful acquisition! The wheels fit the look perfectly. Best color (or lack, thereof) also. Enjoy.

I'll see if I can get any more details on the story when we pickup the car.

Matt
Thanks.
Huh. Wow. That brings hope as well as dread of such effort that it deter's me. However, if one measures the effort to create the cash to have it properly rebuilt... seems like an obsession worth pursuing.

Thumbs up Congratulation!

Nice acquisition. You have the fastest colour, I was told. I really like that 993 dual exhaust.
