Yes we did. The bottom was also blown with air compressor. Sons garage have heated floor, which was turned on to maximum. Also an additional 9KW electric heater/blower was used to generate even more heat. We had about as much heat as we had in our Sauna.....Garage have a electric ventilation system which sucks moisture out very efficent way, with a special plumping, which separates water & oil, so we did it environment friendly way.
Hey i desigend this garage about 20 years ago, it even have a shower & toilet. Just garage Sauna is missing. I suppose this garage fullfills sons demand quite nicely. I am sure 99% of moist was gone in just half an hour or even faster

Putting protective plastic on.
Applying some fresh Diamant Blau color to wheel wells & bottom
After 3 layers of base color it turned out quite nice. We added also 3 layers clear coat to wheel wells

My friend is an old man with very sharp eyes
Yes, you're absolutely right. Hose with the clamp is there just for protective use, to prevent water and other nasty things going inside the fuel tank. Hose with the clamp will be eventually replaced of course

Tomorrow will be a day for some arctic parts digging. I am going to pick up "new" brake lines (ABS) from a friends yard. Only problem is there's some snow (about 1m) surrounding 944 S2 which will donate those vital parts, luckily it will be a bit warmer than -29C we had yesterday morning
S2 wreck in October (no snow....)
There is also a 951 which has already given to son's project 951 it's AC system and some other parts...
Restored AC unit on right taken from that wreck
Son's project 951 almost had a same faith. Here it is at the same yard when son bought it
ABS system will be a 951/S2/Boxster combo, so 951 ABS pump & "brains" will be replaced by a Boxster unit (With Tony G's help). Just bought a suitable ABS pump from UK.

It was so warm, just -16C, so we decided to continue some arctic digging today.
Went to friends yard with my son and another friend Juha, who owns a nice 968.
Empty shell is quite light. I suppose two man can easily turn it over. I was just there pretending to lift, but i suppose it was my son & Juha who actually did the job
Juha searching if there is still something usable
Here's Juhas fine 968 with Turbo splitter i have made
