Love the car, Norm. It looks great!

Would love to get my bodywork sorted out like that!
- hopefully next year...

Cheers

Thanks guys!

Im sure we will meet with anyone here in the UK at one of the shows or meetings. And will recommend you to my bodyshop man, give me a shout I would gladly help.

I just thought instead of doing bit by bit on the bodywork, etc. I thought it was best to do most of it in one go, then enjoy the use of car and ownership. As it works out cheaper, than doing one panel and spending £100-£300 at a guess. All the seals, rubbers, lights, badges, trim, etc bought in one saved me a fair bit of money with discount.

Even though the car didnt have any symtoms of rust, I did have odd scratches, dents and stonechips on the body. Coming from a Volkswagen showscene building showcars, I would say I am very fussy if not finicky on detail, and would soon or later irritate me, wanting her perfect.

Unfortunatley some arent as fortunate as others with other expenses, but soon or later with each and every owner, the joys of getting your car to how you want her will one day happen.

Another nice white 964 I see!

Great car. But what is it with you Brits and seat piping? What marque did that start with? Aston?
