I'll even admit that I am cheating to win this
![]() "1. Enough to hold it on when the targa roof flies off at 150 MPH on the Autobahn. 2. North, unless you are in the southern hemisphere, in which case it would be south. 3. Part #993-964-911SC 4. Trick question - Germans use the metric system. 5. Quack, Shamu, Carrera, Tea time. 6. Put in Calvin's transmogrifier (Calvin and Hobbs). 7. All of them 8. Don't run the engine. Not putting oil in it stops even more leaks. Part #993-964-911SC 9. The one that is not black. 10. If it was alive it might bite you when you stick your hand in it. 11. Muffler bearing replacement tool. 12. All of them. 13. The factory version does not have a "made in China" tag. 14. Thumb tacks - saw it yesterday in a 1974 Oldsmobile. 15. The originals are worn out, the replacement will be soon. 16. Tuning, AM/FM, source select, on/off. 17. The 912 has a two in the name. Top speed. 0 to 60 time. Original sticker price. Current value. 18. Bolt cutters. 19. Higher than a 912 top speed, lower than the 959 top speed. 20. You would trust Consumer Reports for that?!? We are fanatics not lowly consumers! James Adams " all taken from James earlier post, hey I'm not sure if they are right, but I agree with them all. Good work James.

Please purchase the book from our website. When you consider taxes versus shipping, the cost comes out the same. Plus purchasing the book from www.101projects.com helps out and supports Pelican, rather than your local bookstore. (I'm sure you like your local bookstore, but I would hope you like us better?
