    My new '67S cpe

    Just bought Paul Abbott's '67 911S on BaT a couple of weeks ago, then promptly joined ESR. I've attached (I hope I did it right) a picture of Paul (on right) and me getting this sweet car on the trailer. I brought it to Santa Fe, NM where I am planning to retire and start the steep and fun curve of learning about this awesome Hot Rod. Paul is the go to guy for early 911 carburetors. He was kind enough to spend 6 hours with me over 2 days schooling me on the car. He is a fine man.

    A shout out to Ed Mayo who did the engine back in 1994. As it turns out, I have a history also with Mayo Performance who worked on my 911 racecar when I did that sort of thing in the before time (mid 2000s).

    It's got the original transmission but the engine number 960727 per the Kardex is long gone (unless someone knows where it is....in which case let me know...thanks).
