Dear Shawn...This Board is not a good determinate of whether your funny or not... U got boyz like Graygost, Johhny Wiz, Jackie O, PoorWorthlessDummy, CoitisAA, GeeI'm Burnedout, Tweetie, 69SGoatman, JesusChristRevistited, Mr914VW, CainandVine & a host of others that have absolutely ZERO sense of humor! Then You have Raciea911 aka Big Curt who sits on the fence, and is sometimes amused and other times joins the herd...hey Curt you havn't bin croaking lately, those 2 tone wingtips hurt your feet??? IANMORTON doesn't really count cause it's just me under another name...That leaves only SWBSAMMY as someone here with a sense of humor.


PWD that picture you posted of "her sunning herself in the backyard" was darn right obscene...man my pants just couldn't contain the Johnson after seeing that pic...

Speaking of size of the tool:
I take my direction from very early Rolling Stones-

"It's the singer, not the song"
The Capitalist Roader

Tom,
thanks for your insight into the early cars.
Does anyone have an opinion on Bruce Anderson's performance book?
Is it worth buying or reading?

---

You're welcome.

The Bruce Anderson book if full of good stuff and I would buy it. It's a good reference for historical stuff. I think there is an updated volume. I've had mine for a number of years now.

Good luck,

Tom

Speaking of books...what is a good book that explain that explains the early cars; not only cosmetic stuff but how they were designed and the various subsysytems ie suspension etc

Also what can I do to lower it and level it out a little

Here's a good link to get you thinking....

If you want to discuss it more perhpas we should start a new thread so this one can stay on topic. I would be interested in what suspension upgrades others have made to their early 911 cars too.

EXCELLENCE WAS EXPECTED...original version. Alas, out of print, but can be found from time to time on ebay and book booths at swap meets.

Also, there is "The Porsche Book."

The new version is supposed to have everything that was in the old one.

For 911 per se, I like Frere's book a lot.
