914World.com _ 914World Garage _ I don't want to jinx myself but Dam!

Posted by: JRust Apr 9 2007, 09:00 PM

Man what is going on. Got a promotion at work. Gets me a nice company car. Just closed the deal on a kick ass house with a 3 car garage. One large bay exclusively for my shop & 914. I am going to make a deal on a 73 2.0 tommorow from the original owner. I am so close to putting my 74 2.0 on the road I can acutally feel the wind in my hair. Well sort of I am bald. I guess feel the wind on my dome would be more appropriate. To top it off I just bought a 911 front end off a 73 for $150 with rebuilt calipers & newer struts/shocks. MAn I hope I don't drop dead tonight

Not officially jinxed yet. Got to hold off on the 73. Might be next week before I can scrape together more cash to do it. My dang deal on my new house suddenly requisitioned my funds. I have to check the 914 rule book but I am pretty sure any extra funds are eternally earmaked for my 914

Oh well just got to hope noone else see's my car & buys the dam thing before me. So stay away dam you So I guess my jinx is on hold.
