In red, the 996tt really does look like the descendent of the 959. (I had a Scalextric car that looked just like that.)

I do have turbo solids but they were away being powder coated. Basically, I had the screen rust sorted front and rear, an some minor rust bubbles on the wing necessitationg its removal. Then about 2/3 of the car prepped and painted.

Lets just say it escalated somewhat!

Theres a thread on 911uk detailing the whole thing if you are interested.

I enjoyed that read. What a beautiful car. Must make you bond with it even more knowing there's nothing lurking underneath the screen!

Yes, It was a bit stressful at the time though, as you can see in the pictures, it was FAR worse than I imagined.

All good now though, and I am glad I bit the bullet.

I look forward to the next big spend!
