Reason #81: Andy will be holding a "German Swear Word Clinic" in the parking lot over some fine lager!!! Face it guys. This is something we NEED to know. mad.gif

So, if I interpret the smiley-language correctly, the German swear word clinic is a go. Andy has agreed to it. aktion035.gif

agree.gif You are right Jeff, but he refers to it as his one watercooled POS and it is only around for business reasons. No one who starts a 914 related business can count on a long and growing business. The cars and parts are too limited. He had to branch out. He did not have to like it. You have to admire a guy who sticks to his principles...

Actually, from what I saw, most of his business is non 914 applications of type IV. I think he is going to be doing some boxster stuff. He drives a 986 sometimes. He also drives his wife's big ass pickup a sweet bus with a type IV and the Pinzgauer that I've seen.

He says the type IV is his love. He absolutely came out of his shoes when my engine broke 200hp. He made me look like a stoic and it was my engine. So, I believe him.

When I was down there he said he would try to make WCR, but I couldn't pin him down. I offered my car to him cause I figured I'd be driving a sag wagon.
