This arrived this morning, always like to have the COA with the car. Nice you don't have to pay being a member of the Porsche Club worth the annual sub.

I am all for patina.........but hate dirt and like things looking old but good!
Why do people do these things, looks like a looky likely badge, pleased Porsche is spelled correctly.
First coat then more tomorrow and then leather polished, should look better.

Thanks Darren, they have come up really well. Bolster on the driver seat was completely gone when they stripped it back, new foam, all sorted, original cover back on. The horrible stitched Porsche badge now just looks like the leather has been embossed. Very pleased.

Stopped in today around lunch.
Wheels back with the tyres on, centre bearing on front hubs off and will get repacked with grease. Brake back plates and rear anti roll bar off to get powder coated. Brakes all cleaned ready for painting. Wife's old registration just happens to be age appropriate being a 1980 plate, much better than it sitting on retention. I can now tell her I have bought another car, expect she will be pleased we are using the plate.

Wheels look great, looking forward to doing mine. Ordered wheel spacers today and will get car lowered in the next few weeks.
