    1977 Porsche 911 Turbo...

    This car was WORK !!! The paint took me 5 hours to get it where I felt I could not improve it much more. Water spots from HELL !!!

    The look on the future owner`s face made it worth it !!!

    Wheels...

    The wheels were cleaned up one time witha harsh cleaner and were stained pretty bad. Mother`s Aluminum and Magnesium wheel polish cleaned them up nicely.

    Notice that the paint is not perfect. This car will never be a concours car without a complete repaint, but a real nice looking daily driver.

    A lot of work, but I have a soft spot in my heart for Porsches and in the end it felt worth it !!!

    Almost forgot ... Megs DACP X 2 passes yellow and green edge pads. Megs SG with a green pad, finished with #9 and blue pad. Sealed with Poorboys EX.

    I love Porshes, but I hate buffing them, lots of curves. I can never figure out why people wax emblems/bumpers?

    For a car with a 20+ year paint job, just getting the paint to look that good is enough. Nice car, that body shape never goes out of style.
