I found these in the trunk of my new car, look like regular 914 shocks with some sort of two+ inch extension on the top. Why in the world would someone install these?

Tom Woodward. He's the guy who owned Carranza racing in NJ and did the vin switch on my car when he built it. Along with the other sleazy repairs. I found him on ebay selling Porsche parts under the name Prince-Porsche or something similar. Many shady stories attached to the operation and eventual closing of his shop in NJ before he moved west. |
