I needed to make a fast trip to reccue a suitable dorno car for our family project. My mon and dad went along because my wife and I figured we could not stand being shut in the car with our kids that long We left Murphy Texas on Fri at 5:30 am and thus the saga begins.. My Dad was into the drive as you can see

We like to think of him as Mr. Excitement. Youll get to see him when I bring the stuff up to you in late Jan. Im going to get the 928 to where it will start and run then Ill start to take it apart.

Sorry I missed you Larry - both on the road from Tuscon and at the AX. Glad your trip was uneventful.

The other 914 ('75-Blue) at the AX is Brandon's car - his girlfriend is cute though
