That turned a really shitty day around. Thank you.

You're welcome, but thank Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear, he coined the phrase AFAIK.

LOL! I watch Top Gear all the time and have it set up on my DVR, but never heard that one. I love the dry humor. My son loves Monty python and that cute Kate Beckinsale (sp?) I think it had something to do with her vinyl outfit, but, I am not sure.

We MUST create a Hall of Fame for bad 914 Craigslist ads. And this car gets my vote as the first inductee.

There's something about it that goes beyond bad, to the point that it almost has a certain character that makes me smile and feel sorry for it.

I have a 73 Porsche race car. I believe it's a circuit car. It is a 1 seater with it in the center. Steering is also centered. It has body modifications that took a lot of time. I bought this from an estate. It is a rolling project on new tires and motor was redone but never ran. Bumpers are missing ,but otherwise seems complete. In primer. I'll send pics if needed. Call BJ 989 239 1739 or mnmisno1@yahoo.com. I do have a title.

I heard Captain Slow say "Gentleman Vegetables" before Jeremy said "Wedding Vegetables". Best show on TV. This week, when James was driving the Zonda F, and he "finally got the hang of it"... they showed The Stig wearing James' shirt. I watch very little tele, but I watch Top Gear back to back to back on Mondays.

As far as the hacked 914, I think someone needs to serve time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)

Hey, leave me out of this Pete!

As for any South Park fans, recall the IT transporter that had four controls, one of which poked into the ass for driving it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) that is what I suspect the shifter is now in this car. Still better than dealing with the airlines.

http://www.southparkstudios.com/episodes

go to season 5, near the right, "The Entity"... fricken hilarious what is better than dealing with the airlines

edit - forewarning, South Park rips on everything and this one has a Jewish cousin and Cartman ripping away, so don't go there if you get offended by that stuff. The funny part explaining the IT is right at the mid point.

Kinda like the Pooper (Porsche-Cooper) only ugly and done to a very poor standard.

Attached Image

It should be called:

A. The Poop
or
B. 4 wheel Crotch-rocket ( for the position of the shifter)

The Poop, hell Garold will buy it for $50.00 , and find bundles of money hidden in it. Then it will look pretty good. Dave

This is one car where the center cushion option really comes in handy. Too late to add it for car of the month? Or maybe a horizontaly challenged car of the month candidate?

If someone had a lot of skill (with a welder)...a 3.6 motor and a cable shifter arrangement...it really could be a cool car.

Just looking at it from an optimistic view.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the picture of the hacked car was the mutant toy from Toy Story:
