Visited the shop where I bought my 964 6 years ago and decided to take a picture of it sitting where it was when the tow truck came to flat bed it to my house.


Here is the car yesterday.



Here's the before. The guys at the shop had washed the 3 years of accumulated dirt off the car so it wouldn't look so bad. It was a complete car but not running.

You've done a lot to make it look great. What all did you have to do?

Thanks. It's a really modest rehab compared to the fantastic work you see by many 964 owners on this site. Mine is more of an every man's or woman's rehab. I left the really heavy lifting to my mechanic but spent allot of time on small details and the relatively simple fixes. I also held back on some of the jobs because I didn't know what was going to break first when the car was driven for the first time in 10 years AND the first time since I'd owned it, I've been pretty lucky with how things came together.

^^^Beauty!

Had mine out for an early morning run in the cool air, what a blast. Then spent a little time wiping down the engine.

Final step for restoration/conversion back to a street car was getting some pictures. Now I can just enjoy driving it. Picture credit @kjoemedia.
