FINALLY!!! Some luck turns my way!

You won't believe the deal I got into. A guy I work with told me of his best friend in a small town in the middle of Nebraska. He's got something like 7 944's and a race ready 911. I decide I should at least ask if he's got an engine. It seems this towing company a few towns over has had this 83 n/a 944 for months. He doesn't know what the car is worth either and said $300 in storage fees and I can have it.

Story goes, some rich mom and dad bought their 16 year old punk spoiled kid this car for what I'm assuming a few grand. It was mint condition only a year ago. They had a brand new clutch put in, rebuilt the engine, put on some sort of flashy wheels and new tires, etc etc etc. I haven't seen the car personally yet, but those three things make my wee-wee stand up considering the cost of the car. Anyway, the kid took it out f*cking TERRACE JUMPING!!! I mean... WTF??? Anyway, it's smashed all to hell up front, pushed back the upper support and everything. This guy that informed me of the car said he wouldn't feel the slightest bit worried about that engine. He drove it before the wreck btw and said it was solid as hell. Nice enought guy to let me take advantage of it first, too! Considering he's never met me!

I seriously couldn't be any more relieved... at least, once it's paid for and sitting inside my garage.
