Default Pictures of the new shop....we're slowly getting there.

Here's some pictures of the new shop. There's still a bunch of stuff to put away, but we're getting there.

Looking really good - just an idea but have you thought about expanding a little more and start working on some 928 cars - ducking quickly.

Pearl USA S with no side moldings.. I have the twin to this rare combination. Greg would you share what you feel comfortable with (assuming customer car) about this car? build date, option sticker.. possibly VIN. I'm trying to track the Pearls lately. thanks.

Yes, beautiful car, sad story. We went through the mechanicals, upgraded the brakes, had it stripped to bare metal and repainted (20k), and had Robert Budd do the entire interior.

The client got ill, and didn't pick it up/pay the final bill. We apparently will have to lein sale it, to get rid of it.

I have a white pearl twin to this car too (triplet?) Can you tell us what year and share more pics of it, since it obviously pristine now?

A sad story for sure Greg
Nice looking facility you are building there Greg, good to hear that the work is out there, as it shows continued interest in the 928
