These are some really great tips guys!
Especially the one on Paul Frere's "911 Story".
That is a very good angle!

The MG is a cool little car as far as "automobiles that don't make any sence" go.
But it never gets touched and I think he's bored with it.

The Bimmer is going to be a hard point.
I figure 911s seriously out number 3.0CSs so maybe that will be a benifit.

The only thing that worries me is that, knowing my dad, he will purposely buy the absolutely "shoddiest" example he can find because it represents a "challange" to him.

If you guys had only seen that MGA when he towed it home.

It was so rusty, you could see though the car in spots.
He's a mechanical kind of guy... he doesn't like fooling around with body work and interiors... that's what's gotten him into those tractors... he can skip all the things he doesn't like and just have fun playing with pistons and gears.

This is giving me one mre reason to drive the 911 home when I go to Tennessee on leave this spring.

After he's sat in it and driven it.... I think this just might work!

JP, I love being around my dad... I honestly wouldn't trade him for anything.
