You're a good dude.

Where you been, btw?
Since COVID-19, I'm now, as an instruction technology specialist/digital media producer, a "popular" person at UGA. 8-) But I'm having to work all my magic at home on low bandwidth lines. :( Yay me!

I still want to stay in the Outpost family if y'all let me. And yes, I'll be back in another 996 someday soon, but for now, I must take care of my family. That means keeping us out of debt. I've poured a lot of money into that car over the last two years and hope the highest bidder appreciates it as much I have. Cheers brothas!

Thank you Daryll! It looks like it's very quiet before the storm. Hopefully the serious buyer will show up near the end of the auction to place their final bids. It's a bittersweet moment. But I'll look forward to the next one.

Cheers!

Yea, I'll be back in another one... I hope at least. Regardless... I'm sticking around the Outpost and helping Raby out with video when needed.

Personally, It's because of Flat 6's work on the car. If the IMS bearing had not been swapped out, I believe the car wouldn't have gone for more than $22,000.

It helped that you put a lot of effort into the auction, also, B3. The videos were good. You were responsive. Yes, Raby helped a lot and his willingness to post in your auction was major. But, it is also a really nice car with relatively low miles. All those things together resulted in a nice sale price. And the buyer should be really pleased with what he is getting. As they say, "There's no such thing as a cheap Porsche."
