Looks great Greg. I like the purdy clean parts best. I know this represents lot's of elbow grease even with a parts cleaner. I am envious of Kyle.

nice job on the restore project, The car will be too nice to drive JK
But it its amazing how clean the wheelwells can get with the right cleaning.
Since your opening things up i would suggest that you remove the washer tank and fill tube and remove the metal collars,
no need to spray rusty cleaner on the hood

No. There are some "tricks" to making cast pieces look nice again. Bead blast with fine media. Gently "scotch brite" the surface with soapy water. Shine sup the high spots and makes things look like new cast. Slows the oxidation.

Good. You are officially a 928 geek, to know that.
The 97mm pistons have the exact same design as the 100mm pistons that they want you to modify. Porsche is not very fond of admitting mistakes. I figure that if it works for one, it should work for the other. There is always a huge collection of oil cooked onto the piston in this area, so I add the oil return holes.

Calling this a "refresh" is a rather severe understatement.
How much longer before you have to let Kyle head back to the Den of Liberalism? I think he's getting a better education right now. He's already repaired more systems on this car than I've done in 10 years.![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)
Oh, I was a bit surprised you're letting him go to Bezerkley. I spent some time there and look what happened to me.

School starts late, this year. August 26th or something like that. Tons of time, right? Looks like a fricking theft recovery, right now. I might have to "pitch in" and help a bit more, next week. We will see how he is doing by the end of this weekend.
It does help that he will be within walking distance to you....

Drove past berzerkly yesterday on my way home - didn't see any liberals. Some A body gm models from the seventies with 28 inch rims, but no liberals.
