Totally agree, it’s previous incarnation of silver being the worst!

Looks great, you must be desperate to get some bits bolted on. Going heated with the new front screen?

Yes, heated screen. I’ve had one for years so there’s no going back.

I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

Gorgeous paint by the boys at DC….as to be expected….but all that work you and then Barry have done…but importantly so much by you has now paid off….you should be majorly proud of yourself….

It looks stunning…..

When do you get it back in the garage so we all can 'see' more of it?

I’d love to be able to answer that but ‘it’s ready when it’s ready’ is the plan. Back in the garage for Xmas would be fine with me.

The bumpers are in prep at the moment then they will be painted alongside the front wings.

The 250 SWB recreation cars are starting to flow down in the paint shop now so I’m sure there will be a push to shift that green thing out!

Are you referring to the Singer DLS cars here?
