Pelican Parts Gosh, it's nice to actually drive a Porsche instead of having a whole bunch in pieces

Sadly enough, between writing books and working on Pelican stuff, I haven't driven one of my own Porsches in almost a year (sold the 911SC and 356 last year, and they barely were road worthy). Just got the new 1972, and man, it's energizing. Working on your own cars is fun, but if you never get to finish, then you're definitely missing out!

Enjoy!!! It will be a while before I can enjoy driving mine again, it's in pieces all over my garage. I hope to get it all back together & all the bugs worked out by Feb. I'm not complaining, I really do enjoy working on it, in fact it will probable be dismantled 6 months out of every year for projects.

Barely road worthy?

Nice car Wayne. When I heard you bought something I was expecting more of a project. Any buyers remorse now that you have had her for a few days?
