    Too Funny for Off topic

    And it is Porsche related, so I hope it doesn't go to Off Topic. Read the final line on this ad of a tool kit offered by a Porsche dealer...

    The sad part of this is that these guys are 3 miles from my house and my dealer of choice. Their parts department is the best. They are super helpful finding even the most remote 69-73 part and they are pretty price competitive to boot. I know that this might sound like a paid testimonial, but I was just in there 2 hours ago. As usual the guys (and Margo) were their usual friendly and helpful selves
    Must be, as previously mentioned, too much bling bling in general.

    A couple of years ago I was driving from Bend to the Emory Campout outside of McMinnville and my '60 Super 90 Roadster threw a fan belt just west of Salem. I pulled into a grass seed field and repaired it using the extra fan belt I carry and the tools in my original tool kit. Others in the caravan had stopped and they were incredulous that I would actually use the tools to work on the car!
