Tonight I will be picking up a '70 914/6 (or I should say it will be delivered). It belonged to Matt Shepherd (nynone4). Matt has done amazing things with this car. I am really sad to see Matt part with it but I am glad that I am getting it!

Matt, thanks for doing what you did to the car, I will try my best to drive it as well has you have (okay maybe after a few more years) in SM2. It will have a good home.

This is my 4th Porsche and like all the others my wife told me to buy it! You just have to that woman!

I will be selling my 914/4 when I get back from Europe.

Again thanks Matt! It is a great car (even Brad said so).

Mike - I'm glad you ended up with the car. I have to admit I had some real mixed feelings when we pulled away tonight after dropping the car off, but I know it is going to a great home. I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much or more than I have!

Don't hesitate to call if you have any questions.

Matt

A wise move. You saved time and money.
I've always liked the car.....I'd prolly like it more if I had the chance
to crawl around it & leave greasy finger prints all over.

Nobody said you can't come over and crawl around and leave greasy finger prints on it! It is tucked away for the next few weeks while we are on vacation but the weekend I get back there is an AX in Rantoul IL!

Thanks. Matt did a great job getting my car ready for me.

Just remember that you have visiting rights and I won't hesitate to call you.

It's good to see a nice 914 with IL plates! Hope I get to see it in person eventually

That is a nice car. If it would have gone on sale 3 months earlier I might have bought it out from under ya. Silver beats blue any day

Dan I will be making some track days up north later this year or early next year. If there is a driving/BBQ/drinking beer/celebrating someone's dogs birthday, etc event up there I would love to come. I do have to get different tires for the street before I do any real street driving (I haven't told my wife about that yet).

Mike

P.S.
I am in Germany right now and don't have access to the internet often.
