Hey Gang,
This looks like one this group can (and should) sink their teeth into. Michele had her teener stolen 8 years ago and it was recovered recently (a little worse for wear). I've offered a set of calipers up... If you have any parts languishing in a dark dank corner of your garage or shop... perhaps the Karma Wizard may shine favorably on you if you helped Michele. We haven't had a good feel good story here in a while and this one is a keeper: http://flatsixes.com/porsche-culture/stole...michele-benson/ Dig in! |

All I got is one question. Would Howard, Al, Lapuwali, and all those who left us too soon want us to help these people?
I would have most likely lost interest in my car and kept my 911 had it not been for this place and the people that make it. Instead, I sold the 911 and spend more time here than anywhere else. It isn't because we are cool, because we aren't. It is because the vast majority of the frequent contributors here are honest to goodness great people who happen to like a particular quirky little car, but above all else are exceptionally welcoming and compassionate. With the exception of my family, of all the communities of which I am a member, be it my neighborhood, my church, my office, etc., there is not one that compares to 914world in its acceptance of new members, its compassion for others, and its reverence for civic duty. My wife never understood why I spent so much time here until I showed her the responses to a post I made when we had to have our dog put down. The thread ended up being 3 or 4 pages. She started crying as she realized just how great this group of people is. Nobody asked how much we made or if we needed help buying a new dog - they were just there for us. So, yes, I will help however I can. |
