Class? Where do you go to school?
I saw a 959 in Colorado one day. I was driving one of my favorite roads and saw headlights behind me. I was thinking, "WTF, someone is catching up to me?" I didn't know what the car was, but I still almost shat myself when it passed me.

That car was at Conversion Techniques a few months ago Jeremy. You saw it there! We replaced it's oil pressure sending unit. You have to drop the whole engine to do that job.
It's a 1987, the only year it was made. There were 250 Touring models made, 50 Lightweights made and about 30 shady odds and ends models made. Bruce Canepa just recently federalized a bunch of them and brought them into the country. Before that, there was only 4 in the country. I believe the owner of that car is selling it.
