slate blue

Hi to all, this is what has been keeping me busy, a marine blue S4, it had an arguement with a 4WD you call them SUVs, the other driver was drunk, but did pay the owner for the car, a rich drunk anyway, he was found slumped behind the wheel 6 hours after the crash by the Police. He felt bad and lent the owner of the Porsche a spare car till he could find another.


Anyway here it is now, not a scratch or a dent, I also did a refurb on the interior, the car had done 172KMS or about 110MLS I pulled all the carpets out and gave them a jetwash and replaced the dashboard also. The car has a full authorized service history with Porsche from new and just had a recent 6k service.











So there it is, a somewhat of a rare S4, with piston squiters, forged sintered rods and a foldings rear spoiler. The car is now for sale, hopefully it will make somebody happy, I think I have breathed new life into her, now onto the next project!

Cheers

Wow, that looks like a really nicely optioned 928! Love the interior.

That is the steering wheel I bought the kit from 928 specialists, it looks and feels superb, but I am glad that I didn't stich it up. I feel that is beyond my capabilities.

greg, im surprised you dont just keep it and add some boost, that would be the quickest way from here to 200mph, surely.

Boy, that musta been some hit----knocked the steerin' wheel clear to the other side of tha car!!

Greg,
You made a good call on the steering wheel - besides, I only know how to stitch on LHD cars .

Ernest,
I'm not sure it was the hit - I was equally admiring Greg's S2 project post earlier, and it has the same problem! Can congenital dyslexia lead to reassembly mistakes like this? - or is it simply a 'downunder' case of before the wheels were bolted in?

Greggles

When I first lived here I used to find myself driving at night on long open roads, wondering what the F@@@ that moron approaching me was thinking, being on the wrong bloody side of the road ..... as his headlights approached and my forehead beaded up with sweat ... I realised ... the moron was .....
