Your gear selector sphere does looks good Gary.
Did you like my avoidance of any knob joke.
Hope the car comes home to you soon.
it will be fabulous in green.

Re: My '72 911T
Looks great, are you expecting the top coat soon or do they leave it a while to cure first?
Gear knob looks amazing, great to have supplier details. I've seen somewhere else selling his knobs but for £££, great saving going direct.
I was looking for on original replacement one but very tempted by something similar to yours.

Gear knob is great value for money. The fact he will make anything you can think for such a good price means you can take a risk.

Re: My '72 911T
Well, I think it’s fair to say this thing is going to be bright!

Just got the paint sample through for approval. Not that I’ve anything to compare it to, but it looks good
Almost the same colour as the grass

Few more pics received today:
Happy with the match to the original paint

Doors and shell now in a final 2k primer


We are edging closer…
Steve is now letting this settle whilst he sorts them bumpers and number plate panel. Which is going to be such fun!

Re: My '72 911T
Everything’s gone green.

This is just a still from the video Steve sent me, but it’s fair to say the lines are amazing, the light down the quarter is just so good.
To say I’m pleased is an understatement.
Getting exciting now…
