So... I was channel surfing as usual, and joined a movie named "The Specialist" for a while, and lo and behold, a 968 is starring in the movie. Sly Stallone is an explosives expert, Sharon Stone is (well, we all know how special she is), and James Woods is one more time a classic bad guy.
http://imdb.com/title/tt0111255/
There are several scenes where they are driving a 968 Cab, some type of metallic red perhaps. It was really nice to see this. At one point Sharon Stone is leaning on the front fender, wonder what type of dents it got, also wonder what happened to this car. Only question remaining is what the 'lo' part of 'lo and behold' means'?

<img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> flash - dude, what don't you know! Have you been everywhere, done it all?
(not being sarcastic, true compliment)
I don't remember the movie, I'll go rent it or get it, I love seeing Porsche's being driven well in a movie. My personal fav is spy games with the green 911. I like it because he's "driving it like he stole it"!
Flash - one other question - i'm in the middle of putting on a new timing/balance belt. When the timing mark on the camshaft lines up does that mean it's "truly" at TDC? ie does the flywheel make two revolutions of tdc to the camshafts one?
