I bought it and now it's getting a full restoration. I'm doing it up for my sis which is cool, because I get a project, but don't have to pay for it
It's originally a 1980 998 auto, but it seems to have been fiddled about with alot in it's life! It's got a stage 3 998 manual which is suprisingly quick. It's got a fibreglass front including the A panels, but I'll be fitting metal A panels as I don't think it looks quite right!
it also has rather sexual 10 inch mambas with yokos. the plan is to go british racing green with and old english white roof. There are various bits on it that need attention, firstly the sills! some arse has fitted oversills at some stage, which are never a good idea, and as there was a hole in the sill anyway, today I decided to rip em off and fit proper ones.
Original MOT failiure area
It's a little more rusty than I hoped it would be..
Rust all cut out
Welded up
I managed to get hold of some sills for £9 each (contacts
) but they turned up and they were oversills... so I narrowed em and cut upen the vent holes to stop the inner sills going rusty from condensation.
I shall be fitting the new sill tommorrow. Hopefully the other side won't be quite so bad!
