yep, opened it this AM. Knew it was him because he stated "your not my dad" as opposed to "you're not my dad"...

i would anticipate if he just addressed it here it would go away. continuing to ignore it just makes him look worse and keeps it in people minds. even if it is a mind as small as mine.

what's mom cooking for dinner tonite? will you be taking your supper in the basement again this evening? all alone? of course you will.

Oh my friend I have been reading the entire thread. Just questioning how far off track it can get. If one has been conducting a three year search for a 964 coupe and hasn’t found one yet maybe they should up the budget a little.

as i said, welcome ralph. if you are concerned about this thread being off track, again, i say welcome to the MPF.

lastly, ive got more friends that i can appropriately maintain as it is. so with that said i am not currently accepting applications... maybe pmax will be your friend?

hopefully you will hang around here some, we could use a ralph.

You guys stop publishing other people's PMs! M2 finds this intolerable! Last time I did that he flew off the handle. I don't think I'll ever be forgiven for that!

That rule only applies to people I respect.
WG wants to start sending B.S. P.M.'s to people on every post he doesn't like; F-him.

I almost said something, but figured you would sober up come morning.

Ralph3. 02-23-2021 08:57 AM

No problem, I am fairly new to the Porsche game and always looking to learn. I have done almost every thing wrong on my purchase but you have to start somewhere. Continue on.

Can you someday, do a detailed explanation of converting a C4 to a C2. And do you think the C2 Tip is worth converting to a manual? There is a You Tube guy in the UK that converted his 89 C4 to a C2, but he installed a part on the transmission side to the front drive. Is there a kit out there for conversation.

I remember Abreu Motors backdated a 964 Coupe Tip and it was extremely hard to sell but it sold. I do not see backdating cars to look like long hoods, but that seems to be in today, will it continue?

I have several threads on rennlist regarding the conversion. The UK car is also fully documented there. I have no issue converting them as a track car or what my next project will be, a true factory clone of a 3.8RSR. I have nearly all the parts including original intake and the factory RSR speedlines and full supply of 965 body parts. It just took me 4 years to find a suitable donor car. The engine will be a bit more than the original RSR since modern technology has moved on.

Doing the RWD 5 speed conversion properly is a bit of work and transmissions these days are crazy expensive. At least $9k for a decent 5 speed and more for a 6 speed especially with gear swaps. The trans that DanJ just sold was a bargain I wish I had the extra cash to burn right now but too many projects going on at once.

IMO the 964 does not lend well to backdates but that is a personal preference.

I am currently working on this and my slick top conversion on my 93 C2. I am open to suggestions. It is never easy making a one off car from scratch with all custom parts like this, but I do it to keep from boardroom in my retirement years.

You should read the crap PM I got. Swearing 🤬 and cussing 🤬 for no good reason. I reported to P and it’s being reviewed.
Thanks

Thx Cobalt
I will look at Rennlist stuff
Back to our 964 discussion, I told before a broker from SoCal wanted my 89 C4 for Singer project. He claims he buys and locates 964 cars. He offered flat out $40,000. And I would have sold it but started the engine rebuild and they care not about a engine rebuild
