That engine setup looks sweet. What size is it?



You've been had Jamie. Greenie was doing a little extra 'fabricating'.

The real truth

Curt,

I hate you, in the best possible way of course (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Looks like a nice project, just dont get it done in time for WCR09 that would really make me hate you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Don't let the General hear you talking about the car being hers "technically" only problems will follow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

What a great community we have here.

After the Ramble when the General was all revved up she said" I need a 914 too!"

Well I didn't take long to post this little fact.

Jeff PMed me "I might know of a really nice car, Nepal Orange, seriously rust free, factory flared,ready to convert car, the guy is very private so just be patient.. " It took a couple of months, I got a call late one evening, Jeff says "if you want to look at the car it's gotta be now."

So I drive "blindfolded" to the top secret/super secret /impenetrable location, took a few minutes to take a look & said OK on the deal. Shook hands with Mr. X, mailed a check & waited... thanks Mr.X for parting with a treasure.

In the meantime I need to find a spot to store "Greenie" , in comes Kelty360 (Marc) to the rescue. We spend a weekend getting some brush cleared behind the shop, arranging his "showroom" and last weekend we get her tucked away.

On top of all this Jeff delivers the car to me yesterday!


What a gang! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) ( Janet just said "what a bunch of enablers")


Now I've got the car but I'm a little freaked about what's ahead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png)

Do you want to put a little wager on which car will be finished first, mine or your's?

You can't count the gray one.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

I'm wid ya on the spideys. I've been tearing apart rear teener calipers all morning. God made 914 calipers so spiders would have a place to live... good home because 70% of them are INOPERABLE!

So, let me get this straight; Jeff finds a signal orange teener with flares and no evidence of mice and he let's it go? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

Next, cats and dogs will be frolicking together in the meadow.



I did forget to mention the phone call I got from Jeff one night...

He says " if you have any second thoughts about this purchase I can always find you another car" I didn't have any second thioughts & he then admits that he had evil ideas about the car for himself. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)


Eric as soon as I save some cash I'll send a little business your way.

Greenie's new friends don't really know what to make of this young cutie.

Yeah you did tell me what a nice job it was..

I was a little afraid to start with the hammer, once I had a couple of buds in me I started in , you're right "smooth as a babies butt". I might have a "no Bondo flare job.


I think I'm gonna have to stop pretty soon to go dry Janet off again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
