i'm happy it's staying in Canada! We've lost a few nice 964s recently and looks like we'll probably loose another 964 Turbo from North Vancouver which is on BaT. I countered that by importing one from Japan to Victoria. Doing my part!!!!
Enjoy it. There is tons to learn and the community here is amazing. I'm sure you know already who they are but there are some guys here with just an insane amount of knowledge and experience. They can pick things apart just from pictures that after staring at for 5 mins I still can figure out what they saw! In a strange way I find it both encouraging and intimidating! But, at the end of the day it's a car. And I hope you get to do what you want with it, and most of all enjoy it and drive it.
The condition I picked it up in was dirty even had some road tar on it. That will be the worst condition as far as cleanliness goes that this car will ever be. Amazing what a couple hours of cleaning will do to this beauty Since some dummy called it a barn find on bat I thought I would take the first photo when I got home in front of my barn
Looong list of improvements made over this past year (engine / tranny out, suspension, dry ice, vapor honing on all the aluminum engine & tranny cases / covers, etc, new rims & tires, motor mounts, drop links, blah blah blah...)
... and after 26 yrs, the garage is starting to look a little stuffed with all my crap ....
Weather isn't looking as good as yesterday. We have a big event today but it looks as though it might get washed out. Was going to be the last event of the season.
I bought chin splitters for my car last year. Had them on for a while but came to the conclusion that I preferred them with brake ducts in place of the fog lights. I also prefer a stock-looking car so I put them on the shelf.
Fast forward to yesterday. I decided to disassemble the fogs to clean the film that seems to accumulate on the inside of the light lenses. I discovered that my left fog light is not in the best shape. Sunset wants $482 for a new one .
If that fog ends up hanging out of my bumper, I'll definitely be replacing them with the ducts.
Paul I've had good luck lately finding things in good shape from breakers. Autobahn dismantling in San Diego also responds to emails and will go searching for things you ask for that aren't listed on the site. They even found me a matching faded turn lens for the one I broke (by dropping it on the floor). Using used parts is also enviro friendly and often are as new or matching patina with our old cars.

Thanks. I wasn't sure who to use any more. 20th Street and PartsHeaven closed during the pandemic and LA and DC are not "preferred suppliers" as we used to say in the automotive business.
Thanks to enthusiastspec for taking some great photos on instagram. I plan to have him do some shots of my cars in the spring. He has a great eye for details.
I love how my son cons me into letting him drive the C2 and pay for the event. I wish I was that smart at that age. lol
This 92 was hit years ago. She was short nearly an inch. The roof was up 3/4" and over to the driver's rear quarter.
No one in our area could repair. We sold her for parts but it was repaired.
I think they hit a tree right at the frame rail where it pushed through the passenger floor.
