Drove my oldest son up to my friends house so he (my son) could buy and pick up his first Porsche! He bought it from a good friend of mine after my son drove it down the mountainside when my friend had to evacuate due to the fires here in Colorado. He told him if he ever wants to sell it to give him a shot. 2 weeks later he is the proud owner of a beautiful 1970 911T.

@BruceH - Me too(jealous) but he has worked very hard(unlike his dad...) to get to a place where he could afford this. He has wanted one for 20 years and at 41 everything aligned and he was ready to pounce...

Sadly put it into winter storage. Only put 1900 miles on it this year, usually drive between 5 and 6k. No where to go when sheltering in place. Hopefully I'll make it up next year after we've "turned the corner."

That is one hell-uv-a 'First' Porsche. Too bad he couldn't get something newer.
