Default Took some pics of the 944 today

felt like a good day to wash the 944 and go for a drive and then head to the culdesac at the end of my road to take some pics of my 944. the car is still running and driving exceptionally well!

Me too..... It was a great day in NE OH, looks like the spirit was strong for 944 pics. I posted over at "What did you do....", but fine, here too.

Not exactly concourse level, but it cleans up well. Dropped it off the jacks, washed, waxed, vacuumed and running awesome. By the way, that fluid under the fenders is water…



Not my house, a facility owned by my employer and a good place for pics.




The Grey/Burgundy color combo makes finding interior parts tough, but I love it.



Idling, all the needles are where they belong.



A few of the superficial things I did over the winter:
New hood liners using the free decals handed out at 2012 944Fest.



Cargo cover rebuilt, edges of new vinyl roll cover need a touch-up, I’ll get it:



Carpet backing rebuilt so it doesn’t fall into wheel well area (way more work than I thought it would/should be):



Many other things too numerous to name (or even remember)....

some good leather restoration products will see those corvette seats come up like new.

I bought this locally, still to finish but it made a huge difference.

Wow, that 'vette is awesome, stick too. I'd take that over the new ones any day. Get your black one rolling and you have a serious vette stable going.......

A GS with a 13b swap, nice. What other mods does the car have?

no other mods, just the 13B swap. i built it to be a reliable daily driver. i did the swap back in 2008. here's the restoration thread: http://www.rx7club.com/build-threads...ration-822222/

Great looking cars, all of them!

I like the vette interior, so vibrant and "sporty"

Still like the 944 best!
