    Do you ever get into one of these projects and decide to give up or is everything eventually fixable with enough time, money and effort?

    I'm going to hug my 911 when I get home and promise to never let *that* happen to her.

    Being that this is just an every day 1975 tub, this car would have been a great candidate to scrap and start fresh, however it has race history in Europe... So we just have to roll with it.

    @TT you'd be amazed at the weird shit I've seen done to these cars...

    I read about that 959 somewhere. Talk about impractical. Still, there are many many reasons to love all the oddities Porsche has produced.

    The details of what it cost to service are fascinating.
    "As an homage to the EPOdays of yore- I'd find the world's last remaining pair of 40cm ergonomic drop bars.....i think everyone who ever liked those handlebars in that shape and in that width is either dead of a drug overdose, works in the Schaerbeek mattress factory now and weighs 300 pounds or is Dr. Davey Bruylandts...who for all I know is doing both of those things." - Jerk

    Speaking of costs, one of the better Petrolicious episodes re: a guy and his "hobby" Porsche.
