Okay, the following pictures do not look so good, but they always look worse before they look better. Looking closer it appears that the car had been used as some sort of storage bench on and off over it's career as a automobile
"Don't worry it can all be sorted out with some bondo fella."
Is what someone said to a previous owner..... _________________ - 964 C2 The Red Baron - 914 2.0 Project Blue Book - Cayman S Sport Edition Amber Alert! -

Hi Gaz,
Yep, extra louvres one when I did the side cills. These not only look soooooo 17's they should help with the cooling (morelater when we get onto the engine ) _________________ - 964 C2 The Red Baron - 914 2.0 Project Blue Book - Cayman S Sport Edition Amber Alert! -

She`s looking good Chief, is your tin basher going to sort the Frunk and Engine lid out or are you doing them yourself
Are you doing Oulton Park in March I`ve dropped a clanger and missed getting a ticket, but am going to rock up even if I can`t get a spare or last minute dropout _________________ 1998 996.1 C2 3.4 with "Aerokit Cup"

Hi Kris,
we are going to have to attempt to shrink the panels back. The back boot has what we call 'Oil Canned' which basically means that you push the panel down and it doesn't pop straight back out. This will need heating and cooling fast to get that spring back. Mark will do this as i'm onto the smaller sub assemblies.
There are lots of them to sort what with the heating/Cooling system, door, bonnet, boot and engine lid catches, head lights, dashboard etc, etc.....
Engine and box will need addressing very soon along with the cash to go with them
I'm sure that someone on here will post up that they cannot go to Oulton Park this year. I think you will be fine
Not sure which car to take this time around. we did have a lot of fun in the Cayman _________________ - 964 C2 The Red Baron - 914 2.0 Project Blue Book - Cayman S Sport Edition Amber Alert! -
