We lost an OG 914 brother on Monday, RIP Steve Limbert Options

[saigon71]

Steve Limbert passed away Monday morning April 8th in his home at age 81.

The tough old guy pulled through open heart surgery last October but continued to see his health decline. Stage 4 cancer was discovered in February.

He loved all things Porsche. He founded Aircooled Racing, a Porsche repair and resoration shop and continued racing until age 79.

RIP my friend.

Oh man that sucks!
Last time I was up at his place was about this time last year when I needed some electrical bits for my motor swap. We talked for the better part of an hour, and he charged my $20 for the bit of wire harness I needed. If it was 914 related, you knew you could find it there. I've been going up to his shop off an on for close to 20 years now, and his cars were instrumental when I was figuring out how my car was supposed to be put back together.

Steve was also a big influence in my "build your car the way you want - ignore anyone else" mindset. Being a racer, he understood the curiosity and need to tinker and modify. He would listen to my ideas - really just napkin plans - and in several instances helped me refine them.

RIP Steve.
