and I notice quite a few familiar faces.

For those who don’t know me, I’m Jason. Don’t drive…well, I should say…I don’t **own** anything fancy car-wise. I’ve been known to work on a few cars here and there as well.

Anyway, I’ll spend some time browsing around, and I’m sure I’ll run into a few more of you along the way.

Ciao,  
Jason

You should really keep those shit boxes out of your driveway…and into mine

Looks like you have some skill in the exotic car department.

Exotic and high-end has been my professional life for…well, longer than I care to say.

Oh…and you’re saying that you want my Mustang? Cool. I’ve been looking for a special buyer

Hi there right back! No, not yet. I’ve heard a bit about it, and I meant to make it over to a GTG at his place 2 weekends ago, but had some family things going on.

Hi there Kait! So did you finally end up selling off the black car, or are you the happy owner of 2 vdubs for the time being?

Also…going to the…er…potential rumble tonight?

there are definitely good and bad sides to it.

The Italians don’t care as much about “serviceability” as they do about styling. So, that can be a pain. Case in point: failed starter in the Diablo would mean removing the entire drivetrain

Welcome Jason, fellow lambo veteran. Italians don’t care how you fix it, as long as it looks good. 😛

See! You know! And you had it worse than I have it. Working on a Countach is a hell of a larger pain than working on a Diablo, IMO.

One of these days, I need to get down and meet y’all.

Maybe later this week.
