For anyone interested in a nice restoration candidate this certainly seems it is worth checking out. If it is as described, could be a great deal. No affiliation. 1978 Porsche 928
WOW! Just stumbled upon this thread. Would say the 2 928s I've owned are the only cars that I really miss.
Sir, great job choosing this car and submitting it for such a thoughtful and careful rebuild. I think you're blazing a on which trail more will follow. May I ask how the paint was stripped? I'm guessing with aircraft stripper (and a huge amount of care)? Thanks for sharing. John in CT
Update on paintwork from Jim Doerr: The car is looking great. Seamus (the painter) was able to block most the car with only primer. Very little body filler was used, and was documented along the way. Final blocking (the 3rd blocking) is this Friday & Sat. Base and first clear the following week. I will be at the shop next Thurs to review the basecoat. The goal is to have it finished by the end of June. Image Unavailable, Please Login
We are on track. I had my expert review the primer work so that we can correct any issues prior to laying any paint. First coat went down earlier this week. Image Unavailable, Please Login
This stunning Minerva Blue 928 showed up at our C&C a few weeks ago. The owner did a no expense spared restoration. It was like new! Apparently the 97th U.S. Car. Freeman Image Unavailable, Please Login
