Alrighty. I'll concede. ๐Ÿ™‚

I also own a few classics, including a Porsche 944 turbo with popup headlights. But it stopped running almost a decade ago. Poor car.

Oooh, pretty! Shame it doesn't run

Ha yeah. It was repainted "Black Cherry" ages ago. Really nice color in the sun.

I think the turbo is leaking oil, fouling stuff pretty quick, and I dislodged the firewall pumping the clutch so that needs a few welds to keep from flexing. Lots of stuff to do on that car, and other projects had priority.

I really like the pop-ups on older Porsches, the 944 and 928 are probably my favorites.

Yeah I'm a sucker for the late '80s designs. 944, 928, 959
