Proper Introduction

Sorry that I got some what obsessed with getting my 911 running I forgot that it is most customary to do a proper introduction.
My name is Willie my wife Mary Jo an I live by Pipe Creek in an airpark. I'm semi retired. My son lives in Charlotte NC has a ME and EE.
I have enclosed some pictures for you to see that I really do have a 911 and really was running last week...
Here it is next to my son's 68 stang
Daily driver Z4 2003
Sunday afternoon fun time. Steaman PT17 450 hp Pratt up frount.

So yes I do like to have fun too. Now getting back to getting that darn 911 running.

Enjoy
Willie

Hey Willie:

Awesome pictures! I love the crop duster…at least, I think that is what it is used for in your neck of the woods.

The 1983 911SC looks great, and I do hope you get her running again soon. Also, love the Ford Mustang and I will tell you later about all the problems I am having with a 63 Ranchero. I am sure you have heard about the "Fix Or Repair Daily" some of our friends with Chevys' always poke at us.

Welcome to Porsche ownership, and Pelican!

Sorry - Porsches, Mustangs, BMWs, Planes - those are of little interest to anyone on this forum.

And by the way, anything posted on this forum in Green font is to be taken as sarcasm.

Welcome! I think quite a few of us are pilots AND Porsche lovers on this forum. Great looking Stearman you have there!
