Replica. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
I remember the car. It sold on eBay about a year ago.
*(I tried to buy the Rally Monte Carlo license plate from the seller)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) That new wing looks awesome on Wild 6. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif)

I finally had to fight fire with fire and add a wing. All the guys I run with have taken a couple of seconds off their lap times with downforce.

These are my race wheels with stickies - I had my street wheels on in Moab.

I just got the wing on last week. Sunday's AutoX was the first time out - not a true high speed test. This weekend I'll be at Firebird Raceway on the Main track so I can compare against my previous lap times. It may of helped at the AutoX since I did come in fourth place after running on an oil soaked course - courtesy of a breather hose that came off the 914 that ran in front of me.

Porsche AG offers custom paint colors if an buyer desires. That 997 owner had it painted in a factory color of the 1950s from the 356 days. He has a Boxster that he had painted to match his house. I guess he had too many cars to park in the garage and wanted it to blend in with his house if left in the driveway and not offend his Scottsdale neighbors.

Who backed into Russ's car? (I think its the same car) Saw it today at Stutgart Southwest's body shop. Sweet car, should be an easy fix.

also, anybody have them do body work, my shell might go to them for the hell hole and jack plate coverups, er, i mean repairs.

No first hand experience with their body/paint work, but they do all the work on my 968 and I am quite happy with their work and prices. I think MW914 has them do a lot of work on his car too, so check with him.

Yeah, that was Russ' car. I saw it there today too. Evidently a friend of his backed into it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I haven't had any body work done at Stuttgart but they did do all of Russ' car. I've drooled on that car many times and thought their work looked great. They usually have several cars in different stages of completion that you can check out.

i thought 44 an hour was a good body price... Alex? is supposed to check out my site and call me back with what he thinks it might take hourly to patch up my cancer.

Just seeing russ's car there and now knowing they did it - i dont know why i'd take in anywhere else i guess.
