NICE ! good to see the article is out

The "course" will be sweet once the pavement has settled and the extra oils absorbed. But from pics, i can already tell is 3 seconds faster

Thanks to you Dave, Jeremy, Dave M., Jeff, Kevin, and other Pelicans who assisted me at various times during re-freshening. I will always appreciate your help as does the Carrera fur der Resurrection.

Please let me know if there is anything that I can do for you.

It's also important to give a big thank you to Peter Linsky and Excellence Magazine for their Excellent job. It's really a great mag and worth buying.

INFAMOUS?

Wha.......??????

infamous - [in-fuh-muhs]

1. having an extremely bad reputation: an infamous city.
2. deserving of or causing an evil reputation; shamefully malign; detestable: an infamous deed.

Synonyms:
1. disreputable, ill-famed, notorious
2. disgraceful, scandalous; nefarious, odious, wicked, shocking, vile, base, heinous, villainous

Sure... infamous with law enforcement, but in a Porsche magazine?


I woulda gone for something more positive... legendary, maybe.

Looking forward to picking up a copy... hopefully later today.

Some women do, but not the girls that we like Kevin. We like nice girls.
That 's because we are nice guys and birds of a feather...you know the rest.

Besides, I've been too busy to notice.
I just re-stained my house, trimmed, cut and chipped about 100 trees, and moved a small carport. This along with my regular watering of many cactus, taking care of my wife and my mom (they both don't drive), house chores, and things to repair.

I must need professional help because I recently bought a 1960 El Camino that called out to me, "Please restore me!" And I couldn't turn away.






Then I saw this rare 1970 4 speed and Oh Boy, I was in trouble.





Factory bucket seats and a center console. First time I ever saw one like this from that year, incredible. Now I have a place for the 425 hsp Traco small block in the garage.
Jane and I are flying to Antioch to retrieve it Saturday morning.

Hey Chris....did you know that they're revitalized the Van Nuys Cruise? They had an initial outing a month ago and there were over 500 cars there.
