[Bob Kelly]

Hi,

My name is Bob Kelly, from Berkeley California.  I own a 92 Porsche 968 Cab.  I also have a 67 Porsche 912 that I have been restoring.  I got the 968 because the 912 is not a long distance road trip car anymore.  The 968 is great, and a much different car from the 912.  When I bought the 968, in the second week of ownership i drove it from NYC to Berkeley, with side trips about 5,000 miles in 11 days.

 

Bob

Thanks for the welcoming.  Bob is a common name if you're over 60.  The 67 Porsche does need new paint, I was thinking returning to the original color of Aga Blue, but since I'm in Berkeley, perhaps tie dye is more appropriate.

Welcome to the club and 968 land! My '93 cab and I live just up the hill from you, near the Steam Trains in Tilden Park. Let me know if you need any local info, like a good mechanic, etc. Maybe we can put together a caravan to Tahoe this summer. We have another member who lives in Alameda.

To Ibpesq (Bill), 

Yes we do live near, I'm in the Elmwood area of Berkeley.  A July caravan to Tahoe sounds great.  Thanks for the offer of local info.  I'm probably going to rebuild the power steering pump and rack soon, it is leaking quite a lot, and I need to correct some minor electrical issues.  These I will do myself if I can find the time between rain storms, as I am also building a car port.  These 100+ year old houses did not come with a garage.

Neither did the 60+ year old ranch house we moved into last year. I put up a ShedLogic Garage-in-a-box for my '58 Triumph TR3.
