Default CPR - 993 resto

Not one you usually see them working their magic on.

Is that a restoration or just a full paint job?

Interesting on what's masked v. removed. The 10-12 I've done/been involved with all the way over have been full disassemblies. Granted, torsion bar cars so things are a bit simpler.

Not sure if it's a full resto or paint only. Appears to be quite taken down. But to Ken's point, masked off parts are a bit odd. But what do I know, CPR appears to know what they're doing

What masked parts you guys wonder about? Front and back behind the bumper areas?

I bet they painted them first and then covered for the final body panels spray. That how I'd do it.

Wide body rockers, definitely not a 95!

Finn, these parts particularly. Would have thought they would remove. But, as I said what do I know. Maybe the owner didn't want to go that far?

^^^^ If the above photo were just a masking job to protect from overspray, sure that's being very diligent. But you can see from the website that they sprayed inside the fenderwells. Whenever I've gone to that much trouble I've removed everything that can unbolt. But it takes time, even on a torsion bar car. A coil spring car? Ugh. How much you wanna spend?

(Was especially easy on the slope conversion color changes as you had the fenders off.)

Isn't this what many of us dream about?

I fantasize about going from Arena Red to Arena Red Metallic.

I know, my car wouldn't be a driver then, but it's OK.
