Default My new (old) car (Non-Honda) 56k come on in!

Well I just got myself another car. My dad got the car back in 2002 (for free) I might add. Ever since he has had the car, no one drives it, including himself. I'm the only one who does when I go and visit my parents. Well last week as I was leaving, he had asked me if I wanted it since he doesn't drive it. Of course I said yes and here it is. It still needs a full tune-up and whenever I get some extra cash, a supercharger is going into it. Take a look at my new (old) 1979 Porsche 928, w/ 98k miles. FR with a 4.5L V8. Still looks great for a 28 year old car, just needs some tender love and car and thats what I plan to do to it. On to the pictures.

It's going to get a good wash on Monday, I'd do it tomorrow if it weren't for my military training. And since this is honda-tech, here is a picture of my dc.

A nice porsche, even though its kinda an ugly duckling it looks like some fun. On the other hand, that DC is looking magnificent.
