Yeah right, you have the steeenking Bat Cave of 928-dom down there Dood. Talk about green with envy...every other guy on this list is wishing they had YOUR collection.
Now I don't get here in the Forum World often but I'm liking that spoiler addition you are sporting on the white GTS avatar... Were you putting up with a little sweat/moisture marks on the ole wing for that?? Maybe a black scuff from the spike heel?
Yeah, I would too.
Good to be a coconut!

Hello all,
here is the result of a project I have been working on for a long time.
There as been a lot of interest the Op-Art, or as we call it Pascha design, as used by Porsche in the 70'
My idea was simply to re-create the design in leather. More subtle and more luxurious than the cloth original, but still an homage to the bold statement Porsche made at the introduction of the 928.
The above is a converted sport seat set, in black Aniline leather, with engraved and dyed, black on black, Pascha inserts.
The design is actually created by burning away the top layer of the leather, leaving suede. Left original, the design is medium gray suede on black. But for a more subtle effect, this one as been dyed.
You can actually feed the contrast of the suede and leather to the touch.
You can see more detail pictures on my website in the seat section:

This particular set will live happily in the 1984 Euro Iris Blue of Marc White and those planning to be at SITM this year will be able to see the seats and the rest of this beautiful car in person.
I am working on a second, similar set, in burgundy, for Marc's other 928. Hopefully, if I have time to complete it, both will be at the show.
