Hey, I'm new... This is my Second Chance, I traded my '77 911 in for a 1996 LT4 vette. I couldn't shake the PORCSHE in me, Sold the VETTE and I'm now a new owner of a '85 Black targa with only 96,000 miles. Can't wait to change a few things to fit my personality. Hope you can help.

Welcome back to the fold! Beautiful Carrera you have there. I'll mention it now, so it's in your psyche...remember SOCG. Any time you see those four letters pop up on this forum it usually means a group of us SoCal Pelicans are thinking about getting together for a little fun run and coffee, usually in South Orange County (hence South Orange County Gruppe - SOCG). Join us with you new car next time. We'd love to meet you and you'll have a blast driving with us.

THANKS
All that welcomed me aboard, I like to give you a big thanks. This is my second 911 and I have learned allot from this site. There is this guy that re-done his own dash. Now that's unbelievable. THANKS AGAIN

Welcome aboard! I love those wheels. Normally I'm not big on polished / chromed Fuchs on 3.2 cars, but those look SWEET on a black car. Enjoy her!
