From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Árpád
Grand Prince of the Magyars
Árpád (c. 840 – c. 907)[1] was the second Grand Prince of the Hungarians (Magyars) (c. 895 – c. 907 or 907). Under his rule the Hungarian people settled in the Carpathian basin. The dynasty descending from him ruled the Principality of Hungary and later the Kingdom of Hungary until 1301.


Hey .. It's good to be King!

Marc had a fight with in trying to locate all the exact screws and fasteners for the 964 Speedster doors we use. Got there in the end though.

New Pirelli tyres arrived and were duly fitted and balanced. Richard went the extra mile to ensure that the PZero logo was located in line with the valve cap, centre cap and Techart logo of the wheel. Details, details, details....

That is one clean headlight bucket! Great staff and excellent attention to details Colin!! This has got to be the most tedious part of the process when parts removed and catalogued months ago are painstakingly reassembled.

Cheers RP, I do like photography and have managed to get to grips with framing the shots and looking into the background to see what's lurking in view. Mind you, I get enough practise with all these builds!

With the headlight shot I wanted to show the aircon bottle and pipes in the inner wing so I was relieved when the iPhone managed to achieve a reasonable depth of field with the available light in the wheelarch.
