Yes!
Seems we are at the 1/2 way mark in 2020 really quickly to me, so 2021 soon here.

Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?
I removed and replaced and rewired both aluminium indicator housings that were pretty shot and corroded. Whilst at it I decided to change the Horn Grills from Silver to Black and change the Indicator lens to Black surround rather than the incorrect silver.
Pretty pleased with the final outcome!

Had a drive round Strangford Lough, dodged most showers but this one caught us before we got home

Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?
Took the race car out for a Father’s Day blast. Both the girls refused to come.
Probably just as well, they would have been freaked by the last 5 miles with no brakes
Nothing serious, there are no fluid leaks but one rear hub was scorchio, so I think I have a seized handbrake shoe and it just boiled them. I had been building furniture all day, so the garage looks like Oak Furnitureland’s experimental workshop, so I need to finish up so I can get to the lift.
Oh, and I started making a lamp out of an old 964 part, but will wait until I have finished it before posting a pic....

Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?
Cleaned all the underside panels and suspension etc in prep for the MoT next week. Lots of WD40 after a good dry wipe down.
Only faults found ere 3 small areas of paint peeling off the inside of the galvanised rear wings.
Repainted patches galore over the last 30 years.
Red oxide from Car Plan and the then new Hammerite Smooth (gloss) black used in 1989. Done well over the 70K miles in 30 years.

Re: What did you do in/on/for your Porsche today?
Fitted a rennline phone mount that I’ve modified from magnetic to a clamp for my phone . The rennline item clamps around the clock body so keeps the phone ( that I run Waze from ) at dash height. Much better solution than my old windscreen mount that used to shake all over the place
