My restored 944s2

Just come out of the bodyshop. After 5 years of fettling and fixing, a beautiful result. Totally original and everything works.

Totally original ...

Yes. Well, apart from the paint and the new welded-in metal. []

Oh, you know what that means. Original colour, numbers, etc. Don't be such a antagonist ;-)

Exactly! I need to justify my fee to PCGB somehow.

Yes Pete, the fastest colour. Glad you like it. I'm really pleased with the paintwork. It's as flat as a flat thing. Haven't applied a coat of carnauba yet. This weekend's job

Congrats! Looks great! Are putting the guard strips and 16 Ventilier back on or leaving her smooth?

Lovely, looks like top drawer paint there.

Very very nice indeed, can't beat a shiny Guards Red S2[]

Need to sort my S2 badge on the rear now too I feel...

The guard strips were put back on today, along with two coats of dodo juice carnauba wax. Now even shinier.

Shame about the wheel centre orientations[&o](I'm also a pedant!)

Brand new wheel centres just bought from my OPC (not eBay plastic rubbish).

I am totally OCD about this car.

Come on, you can't leave us hanging like that - post some photos of the even shinier version!

(Was the dodo juice carnuba wax original? I bet it wasn't ... [])

Hi Greg. I'm very pleased with the paint finish. It's incredibly flat! It was done by a couple of chaps (Dan and Matt) who have recently started out on their own. They're keen to get work. I'm going to use them again for my 1974 911 Targa 2.7 project.
