I here Gerry has some 200 Porsches and wanted to build a big shop for all of them.... but the question is... how many fourteens does he have in the collection, and does his mechanic use chopsticks too?

Dunno, but did you notice in almost every episode, you can see a Porsche or a picture of a Porsche somewhere.

Also, in EVERY episode, there is a reference to superman, everyone somewhere.

Don't know if it is a rumor but I thought I read somewhere, maybe on this board, that he has a GT. In any case he has to have a pretty spectacular collection. Wonder if hae ever checks out the club? Would be fun to BS 914s with him.

I still have a copy (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

In it they have one 914, it is white, with flares, and what looks
like the rubber lid hold-downs like racers use.

Oh yeah, and some crappy 917 and 911R, etc (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

That's absolutely right. There have been many times it would have been handy to have a hydraulic press, but I was able to get by with my little benchtop arbor press. Any press is better than none at all. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

I was fortunate enough to meet Jerry at the Rennpsort Reunion II in Daytona. I've gotta say he is reall a nice guy. And truth be told, I think this guy likes Porsches just like the rest of us. He was driving a sweet 917. I got an autograph, I know I'm a dork, but this guy is an icon.

There it is folks. Jerry drives a 917. The unspoken law requires that only nice things be said about him (Easy for me - I like him).

I have been selling at the LA Litterature Meet at the Hilton for the past 10 years. Jerry has been a regular there. He has bought models from me in the past.
This year I have some Hand Carved, wood, 15" scale models of the CGT. I am expecting/hoping, he will buy one.

Jerry is atrue enthusiast--he likes 'em all!

He is active in the 356 scene owning some pretty nice cars, including the last production 356, a white cabriolet.
He also owns an original condition Gmund coupe, one of the 50 or so hand built cars from Gmund, Austria when "Dr Inge F. Porsche Kronstructionen AG" was located there during and after WWII. Gmund cars were built in '48 and '49.

He owns the first production 911, with a California license plate that reads "FIRST" and he owns the last production air-cooled 911 (pre-arranged purchase with the factory) with a California license plate that reads "LAST".

In other words, he does all of the same stuff we would do if we had his resources!

Jerry Seinfeld's collection is nice....I see him every year at Dunkel's....never spoke to him. Never felt the need.

Not being a snob but living in Santa Barbara I see stars all the time....as to his license plates. Those are not legal plates. They are show plates.....if you look closely they will have no registration tags.

Anyone can get a plate made that looks damn near pefect...but ya gotta have that TAG....

Oh yeah...I did drive by him...he usually wears a baseball cap pulled down low.....in Frankenstealth....I read his lips when he said "What the Fuch is THAT?"

BTW....there are a few other stars that do 914s....Steven Spielbergh haunts Dunkel's as well....he always seems to come by and buy something from me....
