I have another noob question. The PO (one of the POs I should say) painted my car a color that I would call "rust" if it were on any other car. Skline calls it "root beer" which is far less confusing. My first qustion is how do I find out what the original color of the car was? My second question is about getting a new paint job. Stripping, priming and all that stuff. How much does that usually cost, where's a good place in SoCal to get that done and so on. In other words, tell me all things PAINT! Thanks again everybody.

Cool, thanks Scott. The car is running great. It bounces a little at idle, but I figured that was normal. It's powerslides well!

When's the BBQ again?

The BBQ is next weekend on the 2nd. It starts at around 10 and goes till everyone leaves. Should be a lot of fun and a lot of cars. Maybe even the biggest 914 event aside from the WCC in So Cal. Come on down. Learn some, laugh some and eat some.
