Finally My introduction Post. (With Pictures) **UPDATED 4-14-10 NEW PICTURES ADDED**
Hello Everyone! I have been on these forums for a while now and didnt really ever introduce myself.
The day for that has come since I have some pictures of my 993 from the shop.
It is a work in progress but will be back at my home in a week or so freshly Painted. (Cant wait!!!)
Anyways.........
My name is Paul, I live in Portland, OR and im 23 Years old. My car is a 1996 993 C2 Black on Cashmere with ABD/LSD, 6 speed with 18K Original miles.
I Own a Small Dismantling yard and all we do is Part out Porsches. I have been into cars since I was a child and after many years and many projects finally started owning and working on my Favorite Cars..... PORSCHE'S!!!
So now my car is almost done, So here are some pictures for you guys.
Thanks for all your help so far with my decisions and I know you will be Helpfull in the Future. SO THANKS!!!!
Also this forum has alot of Great people, Even though I dont know you personally I know there is Many Great people here.
The car originally was bought by me with some Rocker panel Damage, That has been fixed by what I consider to be one of the Best body guys in Portland which is a long time Family Friend, The work is So great even I was Surprised with what it looks like. There hasent been prep or paint done Yet but it already looks Perfect.
Sorry for the Bad quality Pictures!
Passenger Floor That has never had damage just to Compare.

Will do!!
It has alot of stuff dissassembled, But that is just because I dissassembled it before taking it to the shop just because I will have to do it for paint anyways. But I have all the parts and it will be put back together right after the paint work.

I have the full set of the twists just threw on some spare rears just to ensure wheels dont get scratched/damaged during Transportation.
Im VERY VERY specific and take lots of time and go over everything during my projects because I Like As close to Perfection as possible.

Paul-- You're already doing well when you get complimented on a P-car with 3 different styles of wheels on it! Wow.
I can only imagine how shwa-weet she'll look when she's back. Sounds like you have great attention to perfection, I mean, uh, detail! Congrats on getting paid to work with what you (we) love -- Porsches.
As you mentioned, you've been posting a while. Thanks for introducing yourself, & - officially now - welcome to the group. Glad to have you aboard.

Hey guys im bringing a thread back to life.
It has been 4 of the longest months of my life and the guy fixing my car definatly stretched time out to the longest because I told him I wasent in a hurry but the car is in the paint booth!!
I cant wait I should have it back this weekend or early next week. He took forever because he is so busy he couldnt find time to work on my car but it will soon be back and the wait will be worth it because I know the quality of his work.
Since the time it was gone I have bought a Steering wheel, Harness Bar, HID Kit, New Silver Crest, New Rock guards, and Hopefully Suspension and Wheels soon.
Cant wait to post more pics when it comes to my house!
