And the exhaust system I want to install... I need to figure out the part number for the oil line... I can't use the new oil line that the car came with for this setup.

Pelican Parts has them. 88.00 for the first one and 116.00 for the second one... I will check with Sunset Porsche to compare price before ordering.

I thought that was a factory rear valence that the owner modified... but I could be wrong. I don't have any more photos of that car, sorry.

While Alejandro worked on fixing the rust in the lower part of the front fenders, I took out all the heater/blower parts and removed the dash and instrument cluster.

Before:

Work in progress:

And my work... Easy to just remove stuff... the tricky part is to be able to put it all back together when the time comes

Jaime, you have inspired me to do some bodywork on a bumper I picked up on craigslist months ago. Twice I used airplane stripper and my pressure washer. Then, just when I was really starting to get into the rhythm of the sanding and the scotchbright, my wife informed me it was my turn to watch the daycare.

Going to be a bumperette delete bumper some day.
