looking forward to seeing yours as well. I am glad to see these cars being taken care of properly. They truly are special and unique and are now seeing the love they deserve.

Yes but it usually only ends up being 3 or 4. Here is a pic of Mike Steve and I down at Amelia Werks this past spring.

I once had 15 964T's that were local that we were going to do a photo shoot for Excellence but at the last minute they didn't think it was worth doing.

And I liked this shot from that day too... This was a perfect example of why owners should NOT rush to leave the site of a Concours. All the other cars had left, and we hung out to watch & listen to some of the coolest cars leave. Then we had the place to ourselves, and the grass was lush...

918man, very much hope to see some cool pictures of yours. Love to see just about every angle of these cars and can't seem to get enough of them.

This particular day at the Werks Reunion was kinda ironic for me, given they staged me RIGHT next to a VERY low mileage RSA that was Guards Red. My first instinct was to re-position in the lineup. It was clear that his RSA had not been driven (let alone on the track), .... yet as the day progressed I was happy to see that my Guards Red stood out very well against his. 25 yrs+ of oxidation can take it's toll even if it has no miles.

The front plastic undertray needs to be polished! That's way too hazy and scratched up...

It is the metal halide lighting reflecting off of it. It looks much better in person.

...and it's on the underbody, where manufacturers have much different standards of appearance than on the shiny side.
