I’ve finally got around to fitting my Cup steering wheel, painted centre console and I’ve got a set of 70’s style inserts for the buckets to add a bit of colour to the black....

Well it’s been rather a while since an update, I’ve been in the process of collecting a few bits for suspension refresh, picked up a centre tunnel so I can get it resprayed body coloured and have been lucky enough to collect another couple of parts.

Brand new springs, arb mounts, lock rings, spring perches and top hats and a spare set of shocks to get rebuilt by Bilstein.




A set of rear speakers to improve the rather limited & poor current set up.


And a genuine Porsche folding cup holder that clips into the air vents!

I got the cup holders for my Carrera last year, just be wary of having tall cups - they hit the A pillar!

All looking really nice though as usual though! Any plans for trips etc in it over the summer?

Your car is going to drive like it’s just rolled off the factory once the suspensions are done. cool

Look forward seeing the interior picture with the new seats inserts.

That's stunning, and definitely something to aspire to, I was on the verge of giving up on the dream and buying something bland.

Love it. I hope you're growing a suitable moustache and mullet to complement them for the Le Mans trip.....

Thanks I appreciate it, I absolutely love this car!! I would never give up striving to get there, I’ve wanted once since they came out and through some luck and patience I was fortunate enough to be in the position to be able to make it a reality.

Nope wasn’t me! I sent you an email a while back about the shocks you were after.
