    When I was 19, I lived across from a laundry service. I was walking to school one day and a guy in a newish Porsche 911 cut in front of me, pulled up to the front door of the dry cleaners, left the car running and brought in his laundry. The 911 was just sitting there in front of me, running.

    It was a seminal moment in my life. Which path would I turn to? Any guesses what I did?

    You took it and now it is sitting in your shop going through a transformation into a RSR Clone?

    Now we know why Eric won't finish it... he can't let it be seen in public.

    Sorry for posting so many photos of it recently, I had no idea! :eek:

    Much like the story of the 15% pulley, we'll never know.

    You guys can have your Lojack. I handled automobile insurance claims for 25 years and even for "just a joy-ride" a car can get trashed so bad that it will never be the same again. If mine is ever stolen the last thing I want is for it to be found and returned to me.
