Retirement 1979 SC
I got my retirement present to myself and thought I would post a pic. Not my first P-car, but I think I like this one the best.

Wow Chief!
That is a really fine looking 911. I love that metalic blue. It reminds me of the first Porsche I owned in the late 70's. Congratulations on your retirement too. Buying your self a pretty SC is quite a way to start things off. I wish you and your SC many decades of driving pleasure! Sincerely, Mike |

Actually now I will have to get a job to pay for a lot of projects. Can you get medical benefits as a Wal-#$%@ greeter?

I have not seen that photo of your 993 until now. That has got to be one of the finest Porsches on the road! HOLY SMOKES! Mike |

That 993 is beautiful! Aside from the early 911's that has to be the nicest lines ever of the 911! That powder blue is a contrast to the power underneath.

Love the color. Kinda retro and exotic like the Italian models.
