OK, I finally had to ask my 11 year old how to resize the photo's, and she made me look like a dummy. No surprise there.
Anyway, it seems to have worked, so while I've posted before, I'd like to introduce myself and say thanks for the site. I can remember seeing these cars frequently during the 70's, and thinking just how ugly they were, and how much I liked the real Porsches. I guess tastes change as you get older, these cars are so unique looking now, and I get a kick out of people asking what it is. The main issue she's got is an oil leak that I can't seem to locate; I guess it's from the front main seal. Other than that, it is in good shape, and is a blast to drive, as you all know. Joe |

What part of LI are you? hershey is the last weekend of April, 23,24. I will be driving there, we will meet with other teeners in NJ and take the drive. This is gonna be my first year as well. As to your leak, have you checked your push rod seals?, they are common for that. I had to replace them a few months ago. |

Hi,
I'm in Suffolk, and with all the snow there's no driving her now. I'd like to do the Hershey trip, I'll just have to throw a couple of extra quarts of the green stuff in the trunk (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) The pushrod seals were replaced by the PO, I thought it would be the cooler seals but they're dry. Oil comes from the front center of the engine. Joe |
