Very neat.

I am wondering if my 18 inch cups and 35 profile tyres are over egging it a bit. One of the things which became immediately apparent was that the grip on the much wider tyres shows up the suspension as being on the soft side, (or worn side) and at high speed hard cornering makes the outer side of the car bob a bit, much like when my Audi 500 blew a front shock.

So the next project is too see to the 17 year old bushes, mountings, and dampers. The three dot white springs are one of the firmest springs fitted to the 944, but not much assistance if the shocks are shot, and the service record shows no shock replacement.... so.
 
Where are those lovely gold wheel centres? [:D]

Are you getting rid of that gold pinstripe at last as well?
 
I hope those turbo badges are on Rolls-esque centre-spinners ~ I want to be able to read turbo whilst you are moving. [;)]

Refurb seems to have gone well.
 
At last its home, and boy does it feel fast. You forget after a few months that for sure.

A few more items to get done then it will be ready for the Zymol Vintage Wax [:D]

At least you can see it now, instead of travelling all the time to work on it.

Must say it was looking pretty clean yesterday, and the tyres were barely warm when you pulled up ? not like you at all, suppose it will take a little bit of getting used to again, turbo tastic [;)]
 
Gents - you need to be clear on the picture you are conveying.....

Slim talks about getting the car home at last, and 944_S2 talks about the tyres being barely warm when you rolled up.

Now I'm getting mental images of Morcambe & Wise tucked up in a double bed......... and I want those images to go away. [:(]
