    Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.
    SWB cars are an acquired taste however once acquired theirs no turning back.

    The hose to the MFI thermostat is incorrect , Porsche seems to be the only source for the correct hose .

    So after a good solid week of Covid I came up for air and finished off a few things - seat belts, rear view mirror, air filter, hand brake light, etc, and get ready to send her to the shop for alignment and final tune up.
    I can't tell you the delight in driving up and down my driveway
