Hey Guys,
I stopped to make an appointment to get an oil change & tune up on my 914 before the Woodward Cruise the week of Aug. 11th to Aug. 16th. Dave Laing's RUF Automobile Central shop in Southfield, MI (248) 304-9091 was full of $million dollar Porsche's. A 959 Black one, a 959 White one plus a number of RUF's, Plus a FORD Rally car with a 4-cyl engine putting out over 500hp. Heck, everything in the shop was 500-600 hp. or more. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Dave said he will give my 914 a reduced hourly rate because he likes 914's. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Dave is also a good friend, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) I took over (80) pictures at his shop and will post a few if anyone is interested?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) I have motor pics, brake pics, Interior pics.,etc. etc. Tom Attached thumbnail(s) |

I figured the "500 HP four-cylinder Ford" was one of the Group B Escorts.
I bet the bathtub in the background doesn't make 400 HP. And I'm more interested in it than the 959s... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (Of course, Canepa is in my backyard, just about, and they've got at least a handful of 959s on hand at any given moment.) --DD |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) They are a dealer and this is a customer car in for a period radio install. These cars are beautiful. When Dave Laing was showing me the black 959 with all of it's 200+ options I asked does it have a TOOL KIT??? Yes, it does and it's in a hand formed leather case with a personal torque wrench and jack. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Gotta have one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) More pics later. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) Tom Attached thumbnail(s) |
