...a wasp is trying to setup home in your tunnel. Saw him go in - waited for him to come out then sealed it up.

Hate those. Don't let them set up HQ in your car.

I hope there aren't babies in there waiting to come out or hatch.

Yeah, I'm working on that.. Stopped at 2 local shops last week. First said they were too busy to take it and the second asked for me to e-mail pictures of the car. No word back from him yet.

I'd really like to stay semi local to avoid dragging it all over.

Toured his shop with the PCA a few years ago.
Nice enough guy.. He quoted me 30,000 to do my car sight unseen.

That price is nowhere near my reality at this point in life.

Mine spent 10 years on a rotisserie. Finally on the ground and painted.

Not for the rest of the reassembly....

When I lived in Northborough my mechanic Bill Pfister thought pretty well of Mike. Had my 944 towed there when I got t-boned by a T-bird, but the frame was wracked up badly so we didn't do business.

Overall though, this reminds me I've got to make an appointment for mine - as soon as I'm employed again... </NelsonHaHa>
