Tried to post a picture, but I guess I have forgotten how to do it.

Mostly plain vanilla '02 996 TT with GT2 wing and Bilstein suspension set at GT2 ride height. This suspension will probably be for sale soon, as my master tuner says this suspension is unacceptable for achieving his goals for the car. Arctic silver/black. One owner. Under 17K miles with transmission rebuilt under warranty. This was an important factor in my search. Wheels and tires are stock and the fronts are the original P-0's. Rears were recently replaced (P-0's) due to a flat tire. Owner says no tracking, and I tend to believe him.

I am going to do some mods via Neil Orton "The Dark Horse." I will leave it with him within the next several days and have given the instructions to return it when it accelerates in a manner that will please an old drag racer.

Have named the car "Silver Bullet."

Stay tuned for the interaction between the "Dark Horse and the "Silver Bullet."

Gentlemen,

Here is a pic of Al's Turbo. I am posting this picture on his belhalf.

Al has told me to say that this picture was provided to him by the previous owner of the car.

Looks great Al! Can't wait to see what you guys have in store for it.
