Mark,
i got mine from a guy on Pelican that also had advertised here on world, abouta year ago, they were made in europe i believe, it is solid brass so it will add some weight (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
Might check and see if he still has any listed for sale over on Pelican.

Phil

this was last week right before final prep for paint


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif) Flash back 7 years ago today! car was in the paint booth prepping for the final step, actually completion and pick up of the chassis on July 8 of 2018. seems like yesterday, but is 7 years and i just turned over having added 20,000 miles since then, moved from SC to Georgia. 7 or 8 octeenerfests, 5 Werks reunions and numerous C&C events!!

Been a hectic past year and spent 6 months without my car and inbetween but back now.

might hopefully see more posts , ive been fairly absent here for the past year - the BIG D suck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Phil -

Have missed our chats and connecting. Hope you are well, "spirit, soul and body."

Ring me up sometime if you want.

Sold the Guards Red 928 you were interested in and the Lord above blessed me with a huge surprise - a Concours 928 S in colors I would order from the factory. About 50k miles and like new in every way and got it for only $5k more than I sold the '81 for. Already won 1st place Euro in a local car show at RIR.

Will post pic on main thread page...

Take care friend - and yes - congrats on your daughter! Acorn didn't fall far from the tree!

beautiful day in Atlanta, some very nice cars at the C&C event, only a few classics and the copper 914 had a lot of attention, especially with the younger crowd!
