Oh yes they do. We're drooling...
Ha! Thanks Bud!
Beautiful craftsmanship
Yes, they are very nice steering wheels and I had considered them all. I really appreciate your input but I've always loved the Prototipo so I'm going to stick with it, for now at least.
Cheers,
Paul

Well looks like I've been banned again on 911uk for my post... ridiculous. Talk about burning bridges. Ho hum.
Best,
Paul

The mention of W9O (another organisation) in my post I presume - same reason Lemass got banned and everyone else over the years....
It's not very clever of them and self-imploding I would have thought. Very frustrating.
You could always start your own forum from L90 and various chapters, hmmmm
Cheers,

Thank you Paul! - this thread has renewed my desire to continue in finding a 964 C2 (ideally) to restore and tune for as a 80% track car. It fills the void as I was recently robbed of a purchase here in Switzerland by a collector of apparently 12 Porsches.
Thank you and keep those updates coming!

Unreal. What dreams are made of

Hi Guys,
We have an update! Who knows this may even be ready this year now
I'm not complaining really, it's only going to be done once and John's making a cracking job of it while juggling all the other ***** he has up in the air at the moment.
We're onto the door cards and because we're using basket weave I'm keeping the whole thing as simple as possible so they don't look too busy. We have had to bind the weave along the edges to make a secure border, which I think frames the cards nicely.
So the simple bit but also to give a subtle contrast, the door pockets (originals) are stripped and covered with matching smooth leather.
The final image shows all the leather stretched and neatly tucked in place.
Bye for now,
Paul

Truly beautiful! You are building my dream interior. The only difference between my plans and what you are doing is that I am planning to have red pepita centre sections on my front seats.

That's very kind of you, thank you
I'll be very interested to see your retro-style interior take shape.
Hi All,
A few more pics of the progress of the doors for your enjoyment.
A couple of the finished rear seat cushions.
We're now onto the door cappings, dash and centre console and then it's finally time for re-assembly, we're getting there!
Cheers,
Paul
