OK, I finally had to ask my 11 year old how to resize the photo's, and she made me look like a dummy. No surprise there.
Anyway, it seems to have worked, so while I've posted before, I'd like to introduce myself and say thanks for the site. I can remember seeing these cars frequently during the 70's, and thinking just how ugly they were, and how much I liked the real Porsches. I guess tastes change as you get older, these cars are so unique looking now, and I get a kick out of people asking what it is.   The main issue she's got is an oil leak that I can't seem to locate; I guess it's from the front main seal. Other than that, it is in good shape, and is a blast to drive, as you all know. Joe |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Your leak could be the front crank seal or more serious a galley plug coming loose. I've seen a galley plug come out before. It happens fast and the oil is gone fast.

Yes, I've read about those plugs. I haven't been able to get a real good look up there other than when I looked at the oil cooler. Are the plugs visible without dropping the engine?
