I'm sure your all aware of the rumors. Yes I did make a 1664 mile trip to pick up a car that is equal in condition to any Minnesota rust bucket I could find right here at home.
Well, here's the story. I gave Britt such a bad time when he bought this car I felt I owed him at least a cup of coffee for being such a good sport about it. The assignment: I'm thinking about repairing this car. (believe it or not) It is a strange color of pink. Fushia, hot pink, something like that. I would like everyone to search the corners of the internet, old mags, porsche ads, and whatever else you can think of. This car may have been ordered for someone's 16 year old daughter, Playboy Magazine, Mary Kay, or maybe it was just a mistake. But It would be interesting to learn about the origin of the car. It may never be repaired, but it will be interesting to see what we can turn up on this car. I'm going to send for the build info..... what do you call it... and where do you send your money....? This should be interesting. I'll post more photo's later. Attached image(s) |

Heh. It was real fun. Pleasure to meet rick. He's someone good to talk to if you think you have something but you think it won't work. Rick, I enjoyed you coming down and taking to me....It was a pleasure meeting you and I am glad you were able to come down. Something is in the works, but i'll keep it like that till I get things together.
Anyway, what I know from the pink car is not much. Someone from around Eastern KY brought this pink 914 into a church to donate. The church took the car to Premiere Autosales and that's where I come in. I had a wreck and the cheapest local car for sale was $800...I went online and (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) a car for $200.... I offered 400 and won. Road trip with my dad's Land Rover Discovery and we got the car... funny thing...Rick and I were getting ready to go, and he said that he saw a giant razor blade in somebody's front yard....The only reply I could come up with was "only in KY" Did you get that picture rick? b |
