    I see some dirt.

    Rick-
    I hope you will report back to us regarding your assessment of the performance when your project is complete. What other modifications do they suggest with this cam? Bigger venturis? Re-jetting?
    Thx,

    Hey Rick - can you show us more of that yellow car in the background? Is that the '68 S?

    68S soft window

    Dick,
    The car in the background is the 68S soft window targa. This is the rarest 911S ever built at 442 units. That pic is from a couple months ago. I will start a new thread and post some updated pics after this weekends work.

    You mean because the gridlock is so bad that there is no reason to even have wheels?

    Rick:
    Looks to me like it would make a great car for ANYWHERE! That was always my dream car, a yellow targa. Well, I'm getting a viper green one, not such a bad alternative.

    Hopefully I will soon be able to post pix of mine in the same condition -- uhhhh --- painted!!

    Randy - you made me laugh out loud!! Thanks

    Jared,
    I would love to keep all the cars I have done through the years. This one, as nice as it is going to come out, will have a new owner, just like all the rest.
