Steve, Sometimes things can get misconstrued on the Internet. The way I understood your 1st post was you explaining that you could not afford to make a mistake for Your car due to you being single and father to a young girl. I think some of the others thought the car was for your daughter.

Congrats on your purchase of the car out in CA. I had encouraged to look there in a pm. I hope that after the beginning of next year, that we can get a Mid-Florida 914 get together. That will give you a chance to have your car for a little bit, and rfuerst, bcheney, watsonrx and I time to get our cars running.

oh ok.
the way you understood it is correct.
no just being a single father can be expense.
hell being a parent is expensive.
i was just saying that for the money i am spending i know there ARE real nice cars.
i cant afford to end up with a car that needs floors, needs firewall, needs longs etc.

if i get much bigger the car might end up being my daughters car in 3 and a half years.

a 265 pound old fat man getting in a 914 is gonna be a funny sight for you guys.
get your video cameras ready.
i am gonna be a youtube star.
SUPERSTAR!!!
