I am relatively still new user, but have used this forum quite a lot this year to assist in the purchase of my first porsche. This forum has been one of the best I have been a part of and enjoy the international portion as well. I want to thank all the members for the great DIY help and sharing of ideas and thoughts. This community has made my experience of owning my dream car all the more better.

Since I didn't have my car long before storage, I have limited good pics to post. But here are a few of my '91 C4 Cab how I found it.

(Appears I can only upload one pic at a time?)

Default Nice Car...

Bet you can't wait till spring to put the top down. There is always a time and place when I wished my top would drop. IIt looks pretty stock so it looks like you will have some fun... but watch the slippery slope..... It is slick and coated with $

Default to do's...

I plan to keep it fairly standard for now. The car was so well maintained mechanically that it needs so little so only small things to do and one bigger one. (2013) I need to get to know her before I understand what she needs. She is my first.

Done Sept/Oct 2012
  • It came with new audio system from Alpine/JL and with a two custom sub enclosures for compact Kickers. I built new enclosures that would give the air volume needed but still full seat travel. (plan to post pics soon)
  • Replaced some carpet snaps under the bonnet.
  • Made custom fit MDF lid for spare tire to give it a flat surface. The previous owner had an amp where the spare tire should be so I fixed that but it left the carpet deformed a bit. The lid gives it a nice flat surface. (pics maybe too)
  • Followed Rennlist forum instructions on how to do some maintenance with CCU fan.
  • Added quick connnect for battery charger/conditioner. 9th Porsche battery in her since she was born.
  • Had some small vinyl defects repaired and shifter boot leather reconditioned professionally.
  • Adjusted top to reduce windnoise around door glass and cleaned/protected with RaggTopp (more help from RennList)
  • Replaced missing cap for manual top access. When it is this nice, it's the little things that bug you.
  • Find nice heated storage for her.
2013 To Do list:
  • Main issue when purchased was rust under the LH (driver) corner under bonnet by hinge. The cancer grew a little into the fender. I am having it professionaly taken care of in the spring when I get out of storage.
  • Plan to add built in opener for garage, simto Flash2Pass but using my own parts.
  • Find or make the perfect cup holder...
  • Design LED mod for rear spoiler and get rid of third brake light. Hoping to locate donor wing that I can use to play with.
  • Look into Car Lifts
  • Perform First Oil Change!!
  • Try not to forget my motorcycle....
And of course....
Drive, Drive, Drive!!!
