In mid-January, as KCRPCA
members you may recall we
were invited by KC Auto mu-
seum in Olathe to display our
Porsche cars for the month of
February.
"What a great opportunity"
me thinks. I offer both the 911
Turbo S and my 944 Turbo
race car. The 944 is still dam-
aged from my Hallett Beach
adventures and needs to be
fixed. I really hope the Mu-
seum picks the 911. Lucky
me, the 911 is selected. This is
great. Free room and board for
the 911, so I can paint the 944.
How awesome is that!
I head off to Olathe. As many
of you know, I like to drive
cars, and drive cars hard. I am
not so much a cleaning/con-
cours kind of owner. As my
baby is going to be on display
(actually it's my wife Judy's
baby, she just lets me occa-
sionally drive it and fix it!), I
decide I should clean her up
as best I can. So on a dank,
winter's evening I head to the
carwash. I gently wash her
and dry her in subzero weather
ready for delivery the next day.
Once we get there we meet
with Jeff Wagoner, and Luke
Spence. We are the last of the
Porsche's to arrive at the mu-
seum, but they have saved us a
