Yes but a bit 'rough and ready' Inspector Clouseau :hand:
OK here is a hasty one taken when I was assessing the bodywork. Once I get it to take apart then I will start a new thread a la PeterS rebuild (but hopefully not to that degree - or expense!) Car will be going back to orange indicators/reflectors since they have been retained by the owner.
Pricing up things now - those side stone guards are not bloody cheap for what is 3M plastic :nooo: And what is also surprising is the price some second hand Porsche parts dealers charge on eBay when Design911 are actually cheaper. Do your research :grin:
Yum,yum that's a very attractive car!
17" on the wheels it's the big gaps that make them look smaller & I'm sure this is on the list of things to do to keep zingari biz over the winter... :thumb:
Same as b345ty never liked silver apart from on a few cars like merc gullwings & classic stuff & the like but a 964 really looks good in silver must be the curve's and dimensions? There's a chap on RL that has a silver 964 & southbound did a re trim in red that looks mega nice to but forgotten his user name might post on here?
Well done mr enjoy your new 964...

Correct 17" wheels and although I think it is lower than standard ride height it could (will) be taken down a few mils further at some point when I weigh up suspension options.
Yes I've seen the silver 964 with Southbound red - the leather was specially dyed. That is very special but at £5k+ for retrim a lot of money. Its a pity that over winter mice got in and ended up nibbling the lower leathered dash. :nooo:
I'll look for a pair of sports seats at some point (currently standard set up in very very good condition) but at least they are not as mad prices as 993 hardbacks :?

Amazed when i started reading the thread Mr Z . 993 gone & on the hunt for 964 ?
Your chosen one looks terrific .
The selling of my 964 .is something i fear will haunt me for the rest of my motoring life
Unfortunately any imminent return to a 911 has just took a major step back after handing over the euros last week for a new barn roof
