Woo hoo! Can't wait to see it. You should come to the autocross at Candlestick saturday for your first drive! Start learning the right way!

I'm planning on going to the swap sunday too. Maybe I should wash my car. Hmmm...

Carreras look so sweet in white.

Hey Cliff, I think I see a spot of dust on the left fender, just to the right of the filler cap. You wanna take care of that before you post any more of those filthy photos? Hmmmm???

Congrats, Bro. See ya Sunday

Congrats Cliff, nice car. I almost got a white 79 SC, but the guy wouldn't budge on his price. How much did you get it for?

Any Sweet Carrera is properly badged with the SC acronym !!

Terrific, Cliff. Congrats. Looks like you got the perfect car. I wanted white when I shopped for my SC. White/Black, that's perfect. And by getting something that's had all the upgrades, recent suspension refresh, LSD, etc., you've saved a lot of money. Happy Motoring!

You must check out www.colorplus.com
Its a company that sells a restoring kit for leather.
I just did my seats, shifter, and steering wheel.
They are new. Not like new.....not close to new....NEW!!!
Really unbelievable!!!!
My 87 has only 46k and only small issues prior. On your seats you will kaka yourself.

I've got a dash mat (either black or dark navy) which I will be selling cheap (like $15) at the Parts Heaven swap meet this Sunday.

It would look great in that wonderful new car!

P.S.: Hope you are getting up to speed on towing so your brother can get his new car home safely. The story of a first trailering from Calif. to Texas should show up soon as a short Pelican article?

very nice cliff. see if you can get wyane to change your handle to "neverneedfixin". if those scwdp stickers dont come through let me know, i may i have one laying around the house.

when is the next mines run? or maybe now that you are no longer unfixed, we can run aways further?

brj,, why must you continue to fling poo from you cage like an unadjusted monkey?

Short Hijack (Sorry Cliff, I'll buy ya a beer) It's driving me nuts. What's an SCWDP Sticker. Obviously I have to get one (I think).

Awwwwwe, that is just waaay toooo kooool. Why would anyone buy a Carrera when they could have an SC with one of these on it?

Nice ride there, Cliff.

What fun stuff are you planning to do to it?

MichiganMat · MichiganMat's Garage

traitor...TRAITOR!!! GruppeB will have your head for this, and I may be the one to do it! My steeds fiberglass armor is almost complete, you'll be no match for its agility and stunning good looks. I await the day unfixed, I await the day....

p.s. Nice find, she looks great

vash · vash's Garage

thanks everyone. my first things to do are to get a numeric oil temp gauge, pedal cluster rebuild....and that is just about it. in the near future, maybe polish the pedals on the wheels, and a duck (ala mark wilson, but white) oh and to see what summer temps in the east bay are going to do, if bad, the carrera cooler upgrade...again.

thanks for the dash cover idea, and the leather treatments.
