And definately couldn't use half the junk that was taken out! You would be surprised how much stuff comes out of one car, having filled 2 van loads.

Question, is it true that the later 964 cars have only one washer bottle rather than the 2? normally one situated under the drivers front wing and a small bottle in the front of the trunk. The later cars retained the larger tank in the arch but done away with the small bottle in tne trunk.
What about the RS? did they just have the small bottle in trunk and not the large bottle under the wing?
sorry to dig up some dirty pics!
thanks

Do you think that posting pics like this helps mere mortals like me with my own 964.... I do a bit of tinkering in the mancave then look at your post and feel worthless... I fecking hate you!!...hats off to you bud..I've sort of done mine back to front from yours and hope to get it on the road all done in the summer then enjoy it for a bit then go for the colour change....I was in two minds to go for the colour change but seeing your posts makes me want to do it all the more now....still hate you!!...I'm still mint green at the moment.... But???... Keep um coming..
When you start stripping the car and your putting aside all the rusty, perished, worn parts, then the engine out, etc. The question is do you want to build the car back with a rusty bolt for example? now thats the cheapest part alone!
Then it becomes an engine rebuild whilst the block is out, then the pipeworks, brackets, , mounts, bushes, exhaust, suspension, refurb. wishbones, brakes, interior, seals, lights, glass, badges, wheels and loads of misc. things. The list goes on!
Then you think back, I only want a colour change!?
You hate me, so does the misses! but you know its worth it!

Great colour choice btw, progress looks swift. Yours will probably be finished before the mechanical work on mine gets started.

Thanks Talat, maritime is love, still think now should I have chosen Mint or Viper Green still thinking now! Been keeping tabs with yours, will be nice when you finish with it;-)

LOL, I'm the same. Signal Green looks great but I always wonder if Speed Yellow would have suited the car better.

Speed yellow is stunning, but not sure if i could live with the yellow inside! Very bright!
Seriously, looks lovely in green with the progress too, yours is the benchmark on privateer class!hehehe

The small bottle was stock for some markets, but most often an extra option. My car sold in germany MY1992 didn't have it. But now it has of course, and the big one is gone. As said, RS and Cups only had the small one.
