Hey ---
Sorry if this gets kinda sappy, but hey this is me!
As a Service manager for a 12 bay indie repair store for 18 years (in past life) I know a bit about cars.
It's been a while, but hey I am showin' my age.
We were mainly a Porsche store but did our fair share of yota work.
That said, the MR2 cars that came through were new at the time and I loved them!
But I was a true Porsche man -- one of my mechanics was an old cuss named Rusty-- him and me were always gettin' into it, but not in a nasty way === "where's your flag sheet Rusty? " == and I would always find him another hour or 2... " why don't you get yourself an dependable SUPRA Richard ? he would say ...
"GET YOUR ASS TO WORK I would tell him!!! ....
Well, Rusty had some really rough times, and not long thereafter Rusty died.
Damned if I wasn't the one that got his Chilton Manuals and all his labor guides, and I still think about the jokes we played on each other to this very day!
You should have seen when he found out that it was me that put that worm in his coffee that morning!!! hehehehh
HE did get me back though !!!
Here's to you Russell Humphrey = You old goat !!!
So now I drive an old beater Celica and am looking for an MR2 MK1 --- and found this site ! Thanks for the welcome !
Times and life changes ---
I am still a 911 man at heart, but times and priorities change ---
Thanks for listening !
Richard
