I figured if it was good enough for Rod Emory you guys might want to know so that you can add it to your car build .  

Rod Emory's dad is Gary Emory. I was a frequent customer of Gary Emory's business "Porsche Parts Obsolete" when it was in business in Costa Mesa, SoCal, in the '70's.

I would buy parts for my '61 Super90 and '68 911S Targa (soft rear window) or just browse around and chat with Gary about all the cool stuff he had in the shop. Pretty cool guy. Seems the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Cool story… reminds me of the late 70’s wHen I had my original 356a coupe going to see Willie my mechanic who use to race 356s at Mosport track in the early 60’s.   I met someone 30 years later who also knew him … what a small place this world is at times isn't it.

Rod Emory is one ok individual in my book, some years ago I had bought the high HP Outlaw project from Texas. On a whin I called Rod as a courtesy asking if it would be ok to purchase a then available on his site black Outlaw shift knob. I don't know how he knew of me, but we talked a bit about replicas which he did not diss, but when he said he would be glad to send the shift knob out to me for free says a lot of his character.... Now I wish I could fine one for the current Outlaw project ~

Cool story.

When Rod's dad Gary was still running the business, and they were still in Oregon - I too called, and got 30 minutes of Gary's time. He was a lot more familiar with replicas than I ever thought he'd be, and knew and respected Henry Reisner.

Rod took the whole thing into the big-time. I still think about the fact that Gary gave me a half-hour of his time, way back in the day.

It makes me smile.

Class acts.
