    I think you got me confused with someone else because this couldn’t be further from the truth lol. I’ve worked as a mechanic and I own two classic cars.

      Alrighty. I’ll concede. 🙂

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

          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.
