And there is a story in that as well, sales guy at GSF was a little bemused when David bought his just a few days after I bought mine.
"Never sell many of these and sold 2 in the last week", to which David replied " yeah I know the guy who bought the other one" lol
As for the cost of running a '44, its way down on what it was years ago and these cars are now increasingly in the hands of home mechanics willing to do more and more.
I cut my teeth mechanically on 24 n/a and 24S so there's very little I won't do on them now, bar welding got a mate who is much better than me and cheap [

If you have the space and time dropping a gearbox to replace a clutch isn't a massive under taking, I know because in the snow of Dec 2009 I dropped an auto box on a 924S and replaced the front damper in 2 nights and a Saturday, to many people around who will still try to scare you into believing you can't do it, its 20 year old technology not some electrical nightmare like 996, tinker and enjoy []
