I sold my van (see the airspeed indicator below) and bought a 1980 Porsche 911SC Targa. This is my fourth Porsche. I feel a little sheepish driving this car around because it looks pretty nice. There is a lot of cultural baggage associated with Porsches. I just like its engineering and the way it drives. I would be happy if people thought it was a VW bug. I got a good deal--it is in pretty nice shape. There are a few little projects I need to do, and I'll post them here. The first project I did (unfortunately not documented) was to fix a broken trip odometer. I pulled the speedometer out of the dash and took it apart. I had to superglue a gear's support back into place. It works great now. More to come.
