Calypso is a 1974 2.0L with just about 68k miles. The factory color is a 98 paint code "Ice Green Metallic" - a special order metallic 911 color from 74'. The car is entirely stock, with perhaps the exception of the seat inserts. It gets exercised vigorously whenever it is warm enough here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) These photos are from the Cincy VW-Porsche reunion earlier this year.

I would have voted for Tod's car, but it's gone. I've given Eric and Bliz so much grief about the rear fods they both have on gorgeous cars that I felt compelled to make my vote for Eric (Bliz's car wasn't a choice).
OK Eric, rub my nose in it!

Had enough? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Car is a 1974 tub with as many GT parts as I could collect over the years. The idea was to create a touring version of the factory GT so you'll see odd things like a complete fresh air and heater system, wipers (intermittent) and headlight motors. The idea was to put the Mrs. in the car and have a nice long weekend in Jackson Hole or Vegas.

Engine is a twin plug 2.5 build on a sand cast factory no number case. 10.5:1 with smaller 38mm parts for street and torque.

Koni's up front on raised spindles with our Versuch 908 calipers. Rare 18mm factory 930 through body sway bar handles the sway.

GT Koni's in the rear on 150lb springs. Factory GT rear calipers and our modified arms.

Factory metal flares and glass hoods and bumpers.

Thanks to everyone here who helped make this happen. This car truly could not have been built without 914World.

Here's an old one of me with a couple of young fans right after the Lime Rock season finale in 2000.

This one was taken after qualifying for the same event in 2010.

Here are a few from the 2003 Lime Rock National in which I took the class win, against former National Champion Harold Flescher - among a pretty tough field of F Production cars.

Eric's car is beautiful. If he wins, he deserves it.

But I'm voting for the ridden hard crashed twice rebuilt stronger better faster race car.
