Trevor looks great...so what is this your fifth or sixth 968?
You should start a thread on whos own the most 968's....

Sounds good, if you do get to it and need any help let me know.

Trev's car has an interesting interior issue. I'm not sure what Porsche was thinking with some of the interior/exterior combinations they offered. The Midnight Blue interior looks very sharp and matches well with a midnight blue (14), white (27), or polar silver(22) exterior. However, the midnight blue interior color doesn't really match well with Iris Blue (12 produced) or Riveria Blue (1 produced). Midnight blue interior is offered as all midnight or combined with the marble gray interior which is what Trevor's car has.

Trevor, if you get to it I think I would change all the blue parts to black, which is what Raj has on his RB cab.

It was a fun project for sure, that is up until Trev donated a pint of blood to his cv joints....ouch! Trev, who is the girl in the passenger seat??

Outstanding work on that car.

Bill, she bought my Boxster S and you'll meet her sometime, she's hella cool and loves Porsches!

Jeff, the interior doesn't bother me at all anymore and Raj would kill me if I dyed it all black so I'd probably strip it all out and sell to him then install a full black interior with late sport seats or CS seats and riv blue painted shells!

Thom, I forgot to mention offsets for the Speedlines: 18x8 ET52 and 18x10 ET61

Sam, nice to see you here! We need to get a norcal group together for another fun run. This is my fourth 968 but my sixth Porsche. I've had the Amazon Green Turbo coupe, Scott's black modified coupe, an m030/LSD coupe with sport seats that mtnspeed now owns, and this riviera blue car.

Clayton, I ain't sellin this one, haha! And I still want the m030 back if you sell it.

Thom

Thanks re the wheels.

What's wrong with the interior? I love this colour combo.
It may be a pain to keep clean, but it nicely contrasts with all the somber interiors seen on most other cars.

Could you explain what looks like plywood boxes used as a car lift? How'd you get the thing up there?
What's the construction of the boxes?
thanks
Jon
PS I have the midnight blue + grey combo interior with iris blue, and yes the interior and exterior blues look pretty awkward against each other.

Beautiful car, interested to know how you got it off the ground as well.

The 968 rest on a ramp I built out of 1 1/8" plywood. It has sections that I can unbolt to allow for greater access. In the picture above the ramp section is removed. With the ramp section in place, you can just drive the car up. The ramp is 36" tall. When I do not drive it, i keep my turbo up on the ramp.

Trevor, I will settle for your wheels on the cheap

Raj, Are you speedlines the same offset as Trevor's? Is it safe to assume you have spacers that give you the more aggressive stance?
