Did you drool on the Zambezi green one that is being restored? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif)

I do know that I like mine the best due to it not having the vinyl on the targa roll bar (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Mark made me wear a bib cause you know drool causes rust and rust never sleeps. I did not take a close look at the red car because (puts on his hoity toity voice here) It was'n't German!

Patricks son's car doesn't look to be in too bad of shape. The inner fender areas survived pretty much unscathed. Should be a 2 day project once I get the fender replacement piece. I also got to see his new trailer in person. Looks like a nice rig! Congrats!

Close, it's a 76 280z. It's a family friend who has had the car since 78. It was parked for about 10 years in LA. Brandon and I flew down, replaced the clutch master and slave and drove it back here with no problems. It has some low RPM issues that I think are related to vacuum leaks. So far I've completely gone through the front suspension replacing all the bushings, new shocks, and 1.5" lowering springs. I haven't gotten to the back yet, so it's got a nice rake to it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I just got GREAT NEWS! All these cars will be moved out of my yard and into a 3000 sq. ft. shop on Feb 1! I'll start a new thread, but it seemed appropriate here.

Mark,
If it works out, I can bring my trailer up and help you move cars if necessary.

Patrick, I have a few options lined up, but I'll definitely call you if there's trouble or we need another set of wheels.

Bonus points to the person who correctly counts the number of 914s at my house pictured in this thread. And identifies them.

1 - Patricks Zambezi car.

If you've been to my house you're disqualified. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/tongue.gif)

Extra extra bonus points if you can identify the other non-porsche cars at my house pictured in this thread.
