Did you buy it from Tobias, or had it gone to a new owner before you?

I remember Tobias buying it as a ... I think a three-liter, which ate itself pretty shortly. He figured he could spend a bunch of money getting it back to where it had been, which was OK but not great, or he could spend a WHOLE LOT of money and have a result which was spectacular. He obviously chose the latter.

It's a cool car, hopefully you have places to enjoy it properly! It still intimidates me!

Hi Dave

I actually bought it in Norway from the guy that imported it. I think the prototype of the Wevo shifter was developed using this car. I just drove it a bit before I parked it. It needs some handbrake job + some other stuff done. I have been working on my 911 some years, so I have not had the time before now to start looking at it. It has a 964 3,6 liter now, and it is fast. Not 100% sure if I will keep it for a long time, but let's see
