- Painted Porsche Indischrot
- ATS 5.5" rims with 185/85 tires
- Huge stereo stuck on grunge music
- 1835ccm engine, twin dells, W120 cam, ported heads
Great fun! Remember very well a surf trip to Denmark where we lost one mate to some girls on the ferry cruise over from Norway. He was not to be seen anywhere when they started to let the cars off the ferry. I quickly changed CD to Iron Maiden and cranked the volume up to max. It was so loud that the rear window popped out but at least he found the car just in time before it was our turn to leave.
I sold the car to a doctor but it turned out he was found of drinking. Sold it on a Friday and on Saturday evening he crashed into two new Chevrolet Starcraft vans and one of them mid ship. He managed to hide and since the car was still registered on me I had to pay for the damages. Or more precisely, my insurance company. I went on a trip just hours after selling the car. First to the Roskilde Festival then to some German islands to do some wind surfing and I was away for 5 weeks. This was of course long before any cell phones and facebook so guess who had to pay for the tow and the storage of the car? Yup... me. I sold the wreck, the engine and the stereo and it barely covered the bill.
Lesson learned - never sell a car to a drunk!
