Garage
Well, kinda sorta, but totally different.

I bought my 914 back in 1974. My not yet wife was with me in 1991 when we spotted the El Camino and I had told her I was looking for a good one. For the first time in my life I owned two cars. The 914 stayed in the garage, the poor El Camino had to stay outside at that house.

We went on a fall foliage tour to Arkansas, and I tossed her luggage in the rear trunk with my stuff. I had no idea that makeup would melt when sitting above the heat exchangers. Lets just say she was not happy. The 914 was not air conditioned. After that trip she told me if I want her on trips I need a Porsche with air conditioning. In 1995 I bought the 911.

I had to look for a couple of years to find my 85 911 and then I had to sell my much loved 914.

So my wife forced me to sell a car, but it was replaced with the 911 and she has ridden with me to 41 states and Canada in it after I upgraded the air conditioning to blow ice cold air in the hottest weather.



That is my desktop photo. Somewhere in the smokey mountains.
