Turk's on THE hunt again!
Turk has the fever and is on the hunt again. He talked about a new FIA but I thought he was kidding until he listed his Porsche on ebay yesterday! I heard that the entire staff at ERA have changed identities and that SAI in Las Vegas is changing their phone numbers immediately!
Check this out!:

Out of sheer curiosity, why was there such a quick turnover on the Shelby? Was it just that the Porsche was too good of a deal to miss or was it an issue with the naked lady herself?

Yea Turk, why did you turn the Cobra over so quickly ? Even before I got down there for a ride in it. By the time I got down to that area you had alredy gotten the Porsche.

Buzz,
No problem with the Shelby but rather a matter of mutual convenience. My CSX doesn't have an engine or drive train and like Turk's. is also buffed aluminum. Turk's car was completed and recently re-inspected at SAI, so the swap of the Porsche AND the CSX for his car was mutually beneficial. After hundreds of hours of detailing, Turk realized that he really missed having a custom painted cobra and rather than completely disassemble his car, it was much easier to start from scratch. Now he's hot on the FIA and as I understand, the Shelby Anniversary Blue color scheme, so who knows where he'll end up.

Here's a better question. What the hell is that tredmill doing there? I'm sure that also has low miles

You should see what's on the other sides! When Turk stated that the car was in a "climate controlled environment" he wasn't kidding! Actually the treadmill is a subliminal suggestion to get Turk to quit smoking.

Dan, makes sense! Chaplin, that's not a treadmill. It's a spare motor for the Porsche - hamsters not included.

There's a nice ERA FIA for sale on NorCal SAAC website and CobraCountry in St. Helena, CA. Been for sale for quite awhile. Don't know whether the guy will deal or not.

That is a NICE Porsche! Not my cup of tea, but for a Porsche guy this is really a find.

I have a sneaking suspicion who it might be . . . . Maybe he'll throw in the heater and treadmill too.

You mean another car that is so perfect you'll have to drive a mile behind the nearest car in the auto cross?
Just kidding....

That Turk!
What a wheeler dealer. I wish I had room in my garage. Terrific cars.
Brett, I just got around to looking through your pictures. Beautiful ride! And the car looks great to! Just kidding.
I know I should know this, but whose was the 40th anniversary car at DVSFIII. One of my favorites there.
