PS: Seriously though, is that yours? Oh, and I still like the GT3. Nothing like a true auto racing vehicle.

It was, long gone now.

Was it not feasible? Seriously though. How to you go from owning a Porsche, like that one, and then... well, you get it. How awesome was the awesomeness of that car? Do tell.

Oh it was feasible, just not what I really wanted. Took it on trade on a boat and had some fun with it. Someone else wanted it more than me, on to the next one. Besides, this is more fun!

Nice ride. My 2007 F-150 got away from me this morning, good old black ice!

Are u ok and how did it do in that accident? Sorry that happen to u but at least ur ok. I my brother flipped my 1979 f150 with a 6 inch lift put on it the night before. The only thing that saved him was the light bar I put on the back 3 hours before it flipped.

You know the difference between a Porsche and a Porcupine don't you?



....on another note...I find it funny that people are willing to pay $50+ for an F150 or a Superduty (and be convinced its worth it) but think $50k for a timeless classic that is obviously very well built is outrageous and inflated. Please.

That was my point. There's no possible way anyone could find, buy, and restore a truck to the same standard as this one was for 50k. I'd rather buy it, instant gratification.

I hear ya. I'm not sure I completely agree but I see the logic. I would actually prefer to buy a runner with a straight body and slowly fix it up to my liking. But then again I'm not really the "show vehicle" type. Don't get me wrong though....I'd take that one in a heart beat. But given the chance to own one I'd lean more towards one I wouldn't feel guilty about getting rock chips in the front from driving it as much as I undoubtedly would

Is that a Geo Metro in the corner of the pic of the Porsche? And that Datson is sweet!
