New to the forum..looking for some opinions/advice

lol.. ironically someone said the same thing when i bought my first Porsche.. and they were totally right.. of course I'm selling it now as I wanted a different look and challenge... This is going to be fun.. Expect tons of questions and yes, pictures i will take/show.
I have too many plans already and won't take poossesion of the truck until next Spring as he's storing it for me (I have no room.. or at least until the Porsche disappears)

Seriously.. a big thanks to everyone, and I'm happy to be part of the group.

Steve, I would have said yes to the '57, but I HATED the black on blue/white, I don't like automatics, and the smashed headers got me thinking as to what else they may have done..

Careful Mark......these things get addicting !! I just got my 51, just started working on it and am looking for another???!!!
Great purchase and have fun with it.

Hmmm...I cannot relate WHATSOEVER! Porsches are not addictive, they're not! They're not!







All more or less hulks when I bought them.

Good choice on the white one !!
I liked that one.
Make it safe, comfortable, and dependable, and use it up, by that time when it is all used up you will have some ideas as what to fix, or replace.

Crappy focus, but whew WONDERFUL car! Man, she's a beaut.

I don't know what age you are; I'm turning 57 tomorrow and in my day that was the absolute "no-compromises-I'm-faster-than-you-are" car. I'd LOVE to have it...but no, can't get back into P cars, just dreaming.

When I worked in California at bugg builders on Santa Monica blvd in the 80's my friend and boss had a 930 turbo in red. He would let me take it for the odd drive or when I had family visiting. That thing would go! Get into it in 2nd and when the turbo kicked in it sat you back.

Yeah, no focus.. I'm real excited.... Went to give my deposit tonight. Snapped a few pics more pics... I'll start a new thread as i have a few questions.

Yes, that Porsche is fast. i made some mods while i rebuilt the enigne, it's pushing around 400hp... cop magnet!
