Woo hoo!! Working on the last $5k!! Please keep those donations coming in, folks. Let's git 'er done!!

FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who enjoy and use it.

We are beholden to no political party.

No advertisers, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers.

No commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam.

Definitely no government subsidies or tax breaks.

We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!

But we cannot exist without you.

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!

Please click the secure server link above or donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up and we now have 44 new monthlies this quarter

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. And we have received 202 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.

Thank you all very much!!

God bless.

Tom Cruise's character's line from the movie *Risky Business*, “Porsche... ...there is no substitute.”

Right before it rolled into the lake.

Putting your car’s criteria into a search engine and the cheapest is $30,000. That’s with engine rebuilds and body work. You can also mention you were thinking of calling Barrett - Jackson. He’ll know who they are. Jay Leno gets cars from them. :-)

LOLOLOLOL.
I might end up keeping it and driving it to San Diego, where I can then sell it myself! Those Porsche’s fetch great prices there.

Well, thank God, I didn’t name a price! I was thinking of saying $20k.

Glad you didn’t! Never name a price for a collector. Ask what they’re willing to pay.

Kid, on the Barrett - Jackson auction, I saw a 1970 Torino like I own and bought for $4,200 new, sell for $100,000.

Don't be too quick to pull the trigger, get info.

Have been kicking myself for 40 years about trading it in.

Right! That was my thinking and this guy is quite wealthy, according to my Realtor. Like millionaire wealthy, (I think) and he loves Porsche’s with TRUE low mileage and he loves the classics. Well, this one is, because it was the last year for this particular 5 speed on the floor.

OKay. I really need the cash money, but I guess I can wait and stall off on things. I can try to sell some antique furniture first. This car is actually in excellent ccondition, so I won’t be “trashed-down.” He had it sent to him directly from Germany.

It shouldn't take too much time to get an accurate, ballpark appraisal.

With the Internet, that ain't a big thing anymore.

He may think that he’s dealing with someone that’s clueless. I would not have let him put the car in his garage. Get it back.

I’ve driven it 4 times and it went from zero to 70 in a flash. Walt was maaaaad at me all four times....lol. I blew it out to 90+ while he was yelling, “you’re going to get a ticket,” and I was replying “no cop will ever catch me.” LOLOLOLOL.

That is a really nice asset to have. Looks like you are literally and figuratively in the drivers seat.

You’re right. I was sort of pissed about that, but he is changing the oil and I’ll get it back in the morning. It was almost completely OUT of oil. He’s also going to check the spark plugs and do a tune-up.

I'm the suspicious type and warning bells are going off. Where that kind of money is concerned, trust no one.
