You set the standard by which all of us with this psychotic condition aspire to.

It is going good. The land was cleared in the fall and the plans were approved by the engineer last week before Xmas! We hope to stick a shovel in the ground in June. I miss the car but I am excited about the vacation home. I still look for new 993 projects weekly. I think I have a disease.

Wow!

Was this accomplished with the motor in the car?

What cleaning products did you use?

Yes, motor in car. I used the citrus-based cleaner/solvent Xenit along with WD-40...and plenty of elbow grease with rags, steel wool and a thin-bladed long screwdriver for the suspension waffling and other hard to reach areas. Go for it - it's a one and done!

You fellows with the mint undersides, sorry I meant the Porsche undersides now need a large piece of stainless steel on the floor, so you can at least see it!

I wish I was that ****... sometimes...

Yes, very fine steel wool...but the Blue Magic is really what made everything pop.
