I started it at the weekend 
That's more than I have done for a while
At least that's a start.
Over the next few weeks / months I'm committed to getting the 993 back on the road and using it.
So plans have changed - the colour change is a future project now so it's staying blue and I've got a list to work through - main items include:
- Fit new rear heat shield and new rear bumper (current heat shield is trashed and thus the rear bumper has distorted
- Remedy slight corrosion on rear bumper mounts (a known weakness on 993s)
- New window rubbers
- Some remedial paintwork
- Service and recommission
- New wheels and tyres all round
- Remove rear wiper (has a mind of it's on anyway and I don't like the way they look)
- Drive it!
I'll keep you posted over the forthcoming months with a few updates. For now ......

Your offset doesn’t look right on the fronts.
