Introductions are in order. I've been lurking for some time now and thought it was time to post up. I am the proud owner of an unadulterated 1990 triple black cab (photos forthcoming). In my opinion, she truly is the best of breed.

I have just joined the site as a friend recommended it. I am impressed with what I have seen and how helpful the people are.

I am the proud owner a S2 Cab, I rescued it from a lady I used to live with, she had owned it for for 9 years, but it had sadly spent two years under a cover at the side of a house.

I brought a new battery for her, and started without any problems. Don't get me wrong the sills were shot, but I finally got her back on the road last month and now the car is in the body shop, Original colour is blue with a blue top, but after many discussions I have decided to go with a white body and blue top, so hopefully pictures soon!!!!!

Nice strut tower brace. Who makes it? Bolt on? Drilling? Any hood clearance issues?

KLA, yes bolt on, no drilling, checked the clearance CAREFULLY, then shut the hood, no problems. I have the same brand on my 993 - very well made, and reasonable price too

Thanks for all the compliments gentlemen. I ordered cam tensioner pads today. That's my next maintenance project. I'm considering a step-by-step photo shoot for all the DIYers out there. Stay tuned.

Sorry I haven't been lurking lately or I would have posted sooner about your post.
I like your car. I like my linen interior when I get in on a hot day but I like the all black interior. It looks great. Did you repaint your valve cover? I like the way porsche is painted black.
