thanks Clint, I got that badge off ebay last year and I like it a lot. Sorry about the pics, I am working on getting this camera figured out. I'll post some new ones in a bit.

That's nice, but 640x480 those pictures, with a less aggressive compression setting, okay?

All right James! Cool car.
Please bring that cool collar to our next McSorley's outing, it will come in handy.

The white RS at BR I'd bet belongs to the infamous George Patterson, who is a rare prototype not fit for mass production. The white one in Curt's pic is Don's car (fellow Pelican head).

thanks John, I knew I could count on you to chime in! :-) Yeah, I'll bring it to the next meet. I think that April is bad with Hershey and Rennsport so maybe May?
Thanks Jack, I can't wait to get the new taillights on (from TRE) and to then get the carpet installed next month. After that it'll be time to safe up for that 993 & 8:31 915 swap. The car would not have come together without the help of the people on this board. thanks to all you guys. James
