Car will be a parts car. I think the transmission is blown. Had it running today for a while and observed some pretty bad noises coming out of it. The body rough enough I don’t think I want to spend time or money getting another transmission into it. I’ve listed it on clist and will see what happens! Engines seem to sell for 2000$ pretty regularly for these. So a whole car with all the extra parts I’m hoping will sell.

I’m waffling. I polished rims and one side of car and is so cute. Also, I found a transmission for 350$ and some tan seats for 100$. Sooo, ugh. Not sure. Wife says I’m crazy to want 2 Porsche’s.

Boxster S just chilling in the carport. Got a set of adjustable rear links to see if I can further adjust suspension and get the rear tires to not wear so much on the inside edges.
Almost time to start driving her again! That’s about it! L

I spoke too soon! Went to drive yesterday and battery was dead... checked the date... Les Schwab 2015, hahaha. Oh well, time for new battery. 6 years isn’t bad. Seems as tho Walmart has them for 119$. Costco 149$ etc.

Some Boxster updates. Got a new Napa battery. Solved that issue. Back tires wearing badly on inside edge. Got an adjustable rear trailing arm kit. Half installed. Will see about getting the toe in corrected. Have a plan. Car is doing well other than that!

Boxster updates...
got the toe in corrected and new tires in back. The wear seems to have subsided. Will keep monitoring it as time goes on.

That must have made one hell of a racket when it let loose. Need new underwear? ;-)

Sold Boxster at Christmas and bought a 1975 Corvette! Loved the Boxster but wanted a new project. Definitely got one. Old school everything…

Thanks. I was actually trying to delete my account from CRF but don’t know if I can, so just decided to give in and rejoin a conversation or two…
