    I've had the good fortune to spend a little time with both Eric and Randy. This community and myself personally have benefited greatly from Eric's top flight parts and Randy's stunning photography.

    I’ve never met Eric but I’d like to. I bought a few things over the years and always been impressed with his communication, knowledge and quality of parts. He has enthusiasm for the cars we love and I only understood that after learning on this board of his history. Thanks for all the help over the years Eric, particularly on 67S.

    Regards

    Years ago, Eric Linden was one of the nicest people I met at the first early Porsche event I ever went to, an R Gruppe meet in Cambria. I was either in college or just out, and driving a 914—probably the only thing in the parking lot without six cylinders. Eric was friendly, cool, and welcoming—so I'm very excited to see what he, Mark, Randy, and John have cooked up.

    Best,

    pete

    I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Eric for many years now. We first met at an Emory Campout when we were both mainly interested in 356’s. I was serving as Technical Editor of the 356 Registry and thought I knew stuff. Eric’s knowledge blew me away - he knew *everything*.

    He’s helped me many times over the years with Audette Collection, my little light venture. I’m currently delighted to work with him, Randy, Pete and Mark on an upcoming article in “000”.

    Kudos to Randy for starting this thread. It’s nice to receive earned accolades without having to die first.

    Cheers,
    John

    Ha! As opposed to......?

    We know what you meant, it just struck me as funny

    Yes John, you’re right. I’m glad he’s still living, I bet he is too!

    I haven't logged on in a while and am trying to understand this thread.

    Did something happen to Eric?
