Dr. Mitch you made the right decision for sure.
With the US$ exchange it will get increasing harder for us Canadian to get future air-cool Porsches.

Parts are back and all cleaned up and ready for reassembly.
Chip in windshield could not be repaired, so getting new front glass as well. Just as well as the glare at night and rain was brutal.

Absolutely fix her. You will bond forever and maintain top value.
Kids?...either, a) spend some time with them and teach them how to fix a car together; or, b) tell them "get lost, daddy needs his space"!
Wife?...remind her everybody needs a diversion, but yours keeps you home in the garage with your pants on!

No coating, all parts were vapour blasted. Guessing it took off the black finish of the timing chain covers? My mechanic has been keeping some stuff "secret" from me until "the big reveal" hopefully late rthis week

I would really REALLY like to have a 964. Especially a white one. And I think I would prefer to have one that needs an engine rebuild with a purchase price at $22K. That way, I could buy the car for say $22K, put another $20K into a FULL engine rebuild and happily own a FRESH 964 for about $42,000. From what I have seen locally (So Calif) that would actually be a pretty good deal.

Engine is in - they had it running yesterday, got it nice a warm and are draining and looking at oil. But, since I was having the windshield replaced, I'm taking care of the ever-growing rust spot in the drivers corner while the windshield is out - so that will take time to coordinate going in to shop - another couple of weeks before I get to drive it...
