    My wife thinks I'm crazy, but I missed having a 350 and 4 speed. It needs some work, but is fairly rust free. The quality of work is a little scary. The upside-down bumper for example. Really sloppy welds on the rockers. But, it's solid enough to drive for awhile before I have to tear it apart, and the bill collectors are happy with the leftover money. First thing I need to do is rebuild the sloppy front end and steering. Then, find better wheels. Can the steering box be adjusted?

    Was it a 911 or 912? Nice truck, but I've always wanted an early 911.

    Yeah, I realized later the bumper isn't upside-down just not sitting right. The car was a '68 912. A great car, but I was almost scared to drive it because of the cost of parts. A 1/2 floor patch panel is about $300. I bought it not running and fixed it. Almost doubled my money. I got the truck, paid some bills, and kept some in case they total my wife's car due to hurricane damage, and we have to replace it.
