Tank should be grey and dimpled (although saying that my car of the same year as a grey tank that's smooth).

Hope it comes together quick enough to have a few blasts before the winter.

I hope so too it's been a long waiting game but i'm sure well worth the wait. :)

The end is very near, just the interior to go back in plus the carpets and the seats. :)

Wow, what a lovely job. It looks really super. I love the colour, and a great choice to use cellulose, I haven't used cellulose for a couple of years, it has been really difficult to find, but you have fired up my curiosity to use it again.

thanks jim

..now Peter, I'm sure we agreed :wink:, but I'd just like to make sure...


. . . when i sold you this car . . .


it was agreed that I get first refusal if you should ever sell ! !

That's right isn't it?! (although fat chance of you wanting to sell it anytime soon!)


..it's looking great. Have you got some new carpets for it?

I remember seeing your car last year at PRS and I must admit it looked a little tired. But wow, it's looks fantastic now in what has always been my favorite colour on a 911. Great job!
