Jeff I'm at a loss for words as to how much work and devotion you are putting into this car. You are a true 928 enthusiast and I'm sure that car will look as gorgeous as it was brandnew inside the showroom floor at Porsche with the high sticker price in the windshield that made us only drool and dream over that car. Best of luck to you and keep up the great work ![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Very nice... I see you are getting the obligatory skinned knuckles. When I'm working on the car, I can't quite relax until I've drawn blood. Seems it has to happen every time. When it doesn't, I feel like I overlooked some vital thing that needs to be done. No blood, how can I be finished?

Mike that restoration is awesome! That thing looked trashed and now its a real gem! I really like the interior speaker quarters. They really make the inside look killer. Nice color too. I hope you dont mind if I have a few door window seal questions in a couple of weeks. haha Cuz I think I'll have a few. Oh yeh and nice site too man. I was going to put it all together too when I'm through. And yours is a real nice example.

This is your fault Jeff -
I just pulled off the sode strips to see what is underneath. There are two holes on the front and rear fenders, and two holes in the door. All holes are between 1/4 and 3/8 of an inch without measuring. I actually thought they would be bigger. I just had to see. That rub strip "double sided" tape - how did your guy get all that off, or did he just grind it off because he was doing everything anyway?
Thanks,
Brendan

Hey Jeff, AWESOME job!!!!! I think it's about time to change your signature, since you're not going with the burgundy. Can't wait for the finale!

Jeff,
Awesomee work. I am doing the same type of restoration as you, but at about 1/10 of the pace. I have gotten all the body panels off, but was also having trouble with those damn hex bolts holding on the doors. How did you eventually get them off?
Great work and keep the pics coming - I am learning a lot from you!!

Great job Jeff.
PM me an address. Im back on the bike and on the B&A trail couple of times a week. I'd love to see it all in person if your close to the trail. Even if your not, i can still drive over.
BTW - nobody HAS to go to a Kenny Chesney concert.

Yhe man I'm close to the trail but the car is in VA. I got a few nice bikes you can check out though. aha Believe me when I am finished I'll be following you to the first get together there is.
And the only reason I went to the Chesney concert is to check out the women and wear my hat without getting into a fight over it hahahaha

Hi Jeff. So far where have you found the highest corrosion areas on the car? Outside and inside. Thanks . Mike.
Hi Jeff. So far where have you found the highest corrosion areas on the car? Outside and inside. Thanks . Mike.
There were only 2 places of corrosion. The biggest being under the rear spoiler and under the trim on the hatch.....pretty messy. The only other place was under the trim that seperates the quater panel from the roof. and that was only right there where that little screw is under the hatch....very minor. This was a cosmetically neglected car too. I mean they have all the maintence records up to date real nice my the dealers but stored it outside and just let the interior go to $hit. If there was a way to rinse the channel out under the hatch glass trim that would be great but as it is it collects fine dust and rotted leaves and crap. And with that keeps the moisture around for and indefinite amount of time and there you go. It would be nice to have someone to figure out how to irragate it as a 6 month service hahaha DOUCHE?
