First off, Happy Thanksgiving all. I hope everyone is having a good turkey day. We spent the first part of the day down on the farm. Walking into the back room where football lives separate of the food, my uncle says to me,

“you like Porsches, right?”
“pretty much” I say as I try to catch the score.
“because I’ve got a 1959 Porsche in my barn back there…”

Turns out a buddy of his has had the car in Arizona for the past 30 years and has moved it up here. Pretty straight 356. I’m not much of a 356 guy, so I couldn’t tell you anything “special” about it, but it is cool.

Why it’s out in the barn, I don’t know? Why his fried has it in my uncles barn, I don’t know? Did it make my Turkey day; sure did. It was locked, so I could jump inside, but it looks real nice. According to the owner (according to my uncle) his intention is to restore it. Apparently there is a guy in Grain Valley? Who knew?

So as stated before, it’s been a while since I’ve updated this site due to the fact that I don’t have my C4. So what’s a guy to do when his daily driver is in pieces and he works an hour away? Buys a new daily driver. This car is for my wife, but for the time being it’s mine. 2000 MB CLK 430. It’s balls fast. Lot of fun to drive. I’m not going to update this site with Benz stuff (I mean, come-on, I’d start a new URL for that), but I figured I’d at least toss up some seasonal shots.

As for the Porsche dedication, I’ve at least updated the Sightings section of this site to showcase some shots I’ve been slacking on putting up. I’ll update with more C4 info when I know more.

Well friends, I’m sad to say she’s in the shop again. I’ve been VERY quiet as of late due to a number of issues, but the assumed condition is bad set of pistons. Regardless, the engine is being dropped again and checked. No real update to speak of. I did get another daily driver for the time being, which is sad because this is my favorite time of year to drive my C4. Anyway, when I know more I’ll share more.

Also, jacking around online with keyword search I ran across this article about Keanu Reeves hitting a photographer with his Porsche? Worst part about the article is they didn’t mention what KIND of Porsche and if IT was hurt?
