I had mine done two years ago sans rebuild and it was in the shop far longer than a few months. Good luck on your timeline. I missed most of the summer and it was closer to a year. I hope yours goes better. You don't see many in that color around here. I love it. P.S> If you are going to go back to the factory steering wheel and decide to sell the one on the car, I would be interested.

Very cool.
The few times I've been to MidOhio at DEs, I insist on being placed in D group (where I belong, at best) and treat it as an opportunity to drive the car faster than normal with an instructor.
The last time I went, my agent told me I was covered since it was a DE and not a true HPDS.
Now with needing track insurance, effectively doubling the price for 2 partial days, I haven't been back.
Pity. Lots of fun.

Thanks you for taking the time (and the expense) of doing this. That was the heyday of Porsche (in my opinion) and were terrific cars. They were also quite simple to take apart and reassemble. Parts shouldn't be too hard to find for that vintage, either!
I remember well when these were brand new. Terrific cars! That's mine on the left--1981 911SC that had been turbocharged.

The car is finally ready for color this coming week! On Friday l drove 400 miles round trip in the pouring rain to pickup 1.5 gallons of Glasurit Line 55 Paint and all the other ingredients required to spray the car $2500 cash only! That's what l call dedication!
