New Member SoCalif USA

Post by trdking »

Hello All,
Randy here (Have your laugh believe me it gets better than this).
I was referred to your site from the 911S Registry in California. My Brother lives in Ulm Germany and we play with Porsches and send them back and forth as a hobby so a UK site fits for me as well as my local site. I am always seeking parts and cars and they are where you find them. Getting harder everyday to find decent cars.
My personal favorite car of mine is an early 1965 911 normale 1035. i also have a 67 911S and a 65 356C. Total car count is 18 but the rest are American Muscle and the like.

I joined this site mostly because of the Horology thread. I am an Avid watch collector since I was 10 years old. I have amassed a collection of over 450 pieces, 42 Rollies, 4 Patek's and misc Omega heuer Breguet Curvexes Hamilton electrics Accutrons etc.... The favorite watches that I own are a Patek 2 register flat pusher pink gold Chrono, A Rolex Steve Mcqueen, Sea Dweller Double Red and a 1968 Submariner Red.

Always interested in interesting pieces Rare or with unusual complications, or Simple watch chatter will do.
Looking Forward

Cheers All!

Randy

I have several "lawnmowers" If you are referring to trailer queens that only get driven on grass :)

I do have stamps but for the life of me I cannot find them. Have not seen them in 20 years but they have to be there in all that stuff.
My kids will grow to hate me after Im dead. :albino:

I honestly believe it is more like a sickness. Something is definitely wrong with me
