How's the 959 going?
Not only the 959, but I heard you have an awesome light weight 928 body at the shop with a 6 point cage... that must be really nice

oh man! I just got the seats and the door cards. When you open a box from the Champagnes' ya better not have a weak heart 'cause I damn near passed out. My wife uploads all the pics and she's telling me she's too busy and she'll do it tonight, so patience fella's. I don't want to post paul's 928 pics as I feel he would want to, but his 928 is freakin' sweet!!!! Bill, yours is next bro, you'll have it back in January, and it is and will be awesome. Gary Knox's car is done and he is coming to pick his cherry GTS up on Monday, I wish he could have seen Paul's new ride. Tonight for pics!

Kevin,
Lookin' forward to transferring Katrina from your Spa to my garage on Monday. SO sorry it didn't work out for me to see Paul's car again after it was finished - I'll just have to wait until he brings it to SITM in June '10! I REALLY look forward to seeing the seats "again". I'm sure I won't recognize them, even though I rode about 1500 miles in them before they headed to Littlestown. See ya' Monday.

Jim,
Tonka had a few areas that needed to be re-done. The hood, the top and sunroof, and the driver's door have been exposed to Kevin's Spa for the past few weeks. I'll see if it looks any better when I pick it up on Monday - HA!!!!

Pics of Paul's work finally and one teaser pic of the 959 project for Rick(Wyatt's ride) who inquired about it. I can't post pics of the "Champagne project" as I said before because Paul will probably want to do that his way. He should be home tomorrow and maybe he'll do it then. Enjoy!

Hey, the inside of the console is over the top... looks great. You know that yellow 928 at your shop, do me a favor and throw those seats in there - thanks bud. Hey, I need to see those 959 pics - were you able to use my cup 1's on it?

Those just might be the best 928 seats I've ever seen, I love the subtle vintage look with the inserts, very well done.

Bill , I did use the cup 1's on the 959 clone. Them seats ain't goin' in your race car man, I don't even want to put them in my 928. I just want to build glass cases around them and display them at the shop.I may have Paul do the 959 interior but he is probably gonna get sick of me soon! The 959 is still not put back together and that earlier pic was just the parts "sitting" on it. It will be done soon, but yours is being prepped for surgery first. You should have went with those flares man, you should have seen Paul's face when I unveiled his car and he saw his.
