    hello

    I just joined the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I bought my first Porsche, a very early '65 912 (#450355) in 1975 and still have it. It's a very rough car, has been in an accident and has the usual rust you find on northeast cars. In 1980 I bought a '65 911 (#301368) that I also still have. My wife says I have seperation anxiety. The 911 is complete but needs alot of work, again with the PA rust. I have a '78 SC as my daily driver (9118300015)for summers, learning a valuable lesson from the early cars. Along the way I've owned a couple very entertaining 914s also. I love these cars.

    Dave, there are a number of short wheel base experts on the BB to exploit - present company excepted. Give them the tough questions and you will be rewarded with a wealth of info. Welcome

    I believe 'fuggly' is the word, and thank you for the 'high-ball' price. I could only hope to get that amount. The work done by Ace Upholstery in Kirkland on the headliner is amazing (and weighs less than Dane's ). I saw a 560SL he just comleted (new leather seats, carpets, door panels, headliner, trunk, etc and his work is phenominal). And the price wasn't a shock, unlike just about everything else. Better bring you check book and LOTS trading stamps if you want the car.

    Sorry Dave - we tend to get off on tangents.....
