my wife and i moved into our new house on april 4th. a couple days ago i decided to replace the rear shocks in my 944. i snapped a few pics during the repair of the car and the house and thought i'd share. now that i have a lot of space, i look forward to hosting a meet so that i can get to know some fellow 7 owners. here are the pics i took:

 

 

That is just beautiful. Glad you are living the American dream.

 

for us, it really is the american dream. thank you for the compliment! since i'm at work and its raining, i figured i'd toss up a few pics of my 88 10AE and the house just before we moved in:

 

Looking good Dave, almost enough to get me liking FCs and wanting to move to Ohio!

 

Beautiful place, you and the missus should be proud indeed. You've got the best kind of neighbors, too... distant.

That's a front porch that cries out for a rocking chair.

 

No, for a porch swing bench.

 

Awesome, happy for you.

 

thanks for the compliments guys! we got a great deal on the house and couldn't pass it up. its 2410sq/ft with a 1000sq/ft basement and site on 3 acres. house appraised for $260,000 and we picked the thing up on a short sale for $180,000. killer deal if there ever was one out there!

well, no front porch swing, but i did just refinish my favorite bench from the old house. i have one more to do. the porch wraps entirely around the house with an enclosed sun porch on the back of the house so i find multiple benches a necessity. that and i like the benches.... but a porch swing will also make a nice addition to the porch. here's a pic of the bench that i refinished on thursday. it sits on the side of the house:

 

Good luck with the new home, looks like a beautiful, secluded property with plenty of shade and space for just about anything you'd want. Have fun with it, congrats on the deal as well!

 

What a house!! Congrats on it! Looks amazing

 

if the weather is nice tomorrow afternoon when i get up i will take a few more exterior pics

 

Beautiful place, beautiful cars! Congrats man.

 

Ill have to find some time and check out the new place. Although I wont go both ways in 1 day again lol. Another good thing about seclusion is your neighbor wont borrow the lawn mower anymore.

How about some inside pics.

 

The best thing is he can have as many cars as he wants!

 

Directfreak, you are right about that! i have enough land that i can pretty much store any car i can buy!

IanS, i will trry and take some pics tomrrow evening. i work all night tonight from 7am until 7pm tomorrow morning and then i work 3pm until 7pm tomorrow on overtime...so after that mess i'll take some pics and post them.

 

Nice looking place Dave! I love the old growth trees. They are awesome. If you ever decide to follow thru on the Rx-7 meet idea let me know. I'd definitely like to come, even if I'm not able to drive Gus to it.

 

Good looking place Dave, hopefully you can get a meet together, I'd be down for that

 

nice place .... bet you have a lot of hood bird crap to deal with

So the better half doesnt get a garage spot ? you da man ! Your 10th anny would sure look nice with some leatherseat.com replacement covers

 

Nice house! Double door garage, that's what I have as well, but yours seem to have more room.

 

nice house. congrats. I wish we could find something like that here for that kind of price.

 

Rx7 party at dave's house!!!!!!!!!!

 

Lol you and me both. That kind of house and property in northern NJ is easily 500k+...

 

RX-7 party here soon.. maybe in early May. i have to see when i can take off work.

 

Gorgeous car, and gorgeous house. I hope they both bring you much happiness
