Wanted to share my latest Barn Finding column in the Porsche 356 Registry Magazine. It shows the extremes this job asks of me, one day it was 104 degrees and the another it was 2 degrees. A 100 degree spread! It was also two cool barn finds, both matching numbers that had been put away decades ago. If you're not a member of the Registry, check out the article and think of joining, it's the greatest Porsche club on the planet.

very enjoyable read.
you guys sure do get temp extremes from one end of the dial to the other 6months apart.' its way easier on the body down here. 104 F is nothing special for summer here but 2 F --- thats the sort of climate "kills" north antarcticans. coldest it gets here is single digit C. say 6 or 7. gets everyone whining and shivering and sitting on top of heaters. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) around 41-43F in your imperialistic measurements. never ever gets below freezing except in some rural areas overnight, you get a frost on the ground thats gone 1/2 an hour after the sun comes uip. keep up the good work.

Cool barn finds, and dealing with "interesting" owners, alway make for good stories. Well done.
My personal temperature extremes in the same place were in central Alaska. I saw an honest 90° F one summer (maybe 92°), and easily -50° F in the winter. |
