Hello all,

Forgive me for the clickbait title. I don't really want to borrow a million pound supercar to drive, I just want to take a quick picture of one.

I have this weird side hobby of making highly custom furniture from car parts (see this thread: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&... )

My latest one is themed around Porsche, specifically the Carrera GT and 964 3.6 turbo (mostly Carrera GT parts).

I was wondering if anyone would let me take a quick picture of it in front of their Carrera GT? I obviously don't want to drive your car, or even touch it, just to be in its presence for a while. I'm more than willing to work around you and your schedule and obviously happy to travel.

I do attend various cars and coffee events in the northwest, so if your more comfortable to do it at that type of event, then I'm more than happy to do so.

Also, to be completely open, I'm not sure if I'm going to sell it or not. The last one I auctioned off for charity, but I'm unsure if Im going to keep this one for myself. So, whilst I don't intend this to aide in the sale of it, months, or years down the line I may sell it to fund other tables, I honestly don't know yet. Like I said, just want to be honest. It cost be so much in both time and materials (thousands of pounds and hundreds of hours), I don't actually think it's financially viable to try and sell it anyways.

Finally, I understand that this request really isn't viable for a few months yet due to lockdown, so I won't be pushing to get it done quickly. I just wanted to put the feelers out for anyone that's willing to indulge a slightly unreasonable request smile
