It looks like the 911s have always used the squarer font.

Now that you mention it, I remember the italicized font on the 987 and 986.

I already posted pictures!

When the weather is nice again I'll try to get some. But I'll probably forget. I'm not really a picture-taker.

Poking around on the net last night, it doesn’t look like it. I was surprised, too.

FC, keep us updated if you spy production shots on TYD.

And what are your 987 plans?

Well, as soon as we get a nice day, I will clean it and put it up for sale. I imagine that will be mid-March at the earliest.
