It is a slanted six in that picture. To bad humor was trumped by the desire to show intelligence. Humor won in the long run.

 

This car is getting a new heart.

 

That's how you polish the head covers? Engine all together, on an engine stand?

 

Well hurry up! Sandwiches by Stef, remember?!

 

I knew you were going to say that smarta$$. :lol:rrr:

 

You mean my old Dodge Dart didn't have the same motor as a Porsche 911?
I'm completely devastated!

 

I love seeing air cooled Porsches on the road. That's when Porsche had it going on.

 

Ummmm its a flat six, Porsche has NEVER used a slant six in a 911.

Air cooled flat six, steel wide body, and a duck tail...

:drool

 

I fell for them watching the IROC races. Does that make me old?

 

Love it a slant six. Had one of those in my old Dog Fart the Dodge Dart.

I'd love to have a car like that. I'd wear my clone suite while I blitzed the back roads in it.

 

Nice find on the Random Garage. Very nice car!

 

I was standing next to the car today. It's is an awesome car but Eric is taking his time to rebuild it the right way. He is also recarpeting the inside.

I think when it's done I will spend a few days with it to detail it. :ihih:

 

It's always a catch 22. Throw it together to get back behind the wheel as quickly as possible, or do it right the first time and enjoy it longer, even if it takes twice as long. Something like this deserves the time spent, and I'm glad to hear that's what's going on. This is going to be a gorgeous sight on the road.

 

Oh it has been in the shop at helix since the floor paint dried a few yeas ago. :lol:

Yeah he is really taking his time, but I know Eric and he will take his time and it will be perfect when he is done.

 

Crashington its not a slant six its a flat six, completely different.

 

I fell in love with these cars as a kid while watching the chase scene in the movie "Condorman"
