This light has never been touched.. I'd say for nearly 40 years! I'd also like to get my inside doors detailed out. Bought cleaner wax and carnauba was as well. Was not there a large deal before repaint, or did the Euro cars not have one like this?

I have never seen a RoW 1979 930 with that emissions label.

If they did have one that is news to me.

I could me wrong but again I have never seen that label on anything but US and Canada 930s.

I’ve also added some c boxes in my console these are quite hard to come by. I need to paint them black but really liked the red.

I’m tempted to leave them red.

Glad you enjoy detailing. Personally, I think 930s are far more fun to drive than to clean.

You should try it.

I am not familiar with Euro cars, so that is why I was wondering. Your 930 looks like a very nice concours contestant once you finish the restoration.

Thanks, long long long way.. Porsche concours events are unbelievably hard to even enter. Attention to detail is beyond comprehension at times..

Do you know what country your car originated? If so, you can go the the Porsche Classic website for there (for example, Porsche Classic UK), open the parts catalog for your year, and there will be a page(s) showing all the stickers the car came with.

For sure.
I was fortunate to get most of my 930s ( some, decades ago) mostly carefully owned so I can not take credit for the show winning condition. I stopped judging concours 2 years ago, ( Porsche concours even long before that). Sold many of the 930s that I entered , still have lots of trophy's ( and a few 930s, see them @ www.voitureltd.com ) in the different classes I had entered. Still was fun to participate.

Just applied 3 coats of wax and I have to say the paint shines to its highest level yet. After my 30+ hours detail of the door jambs I figured I needed a good detail of the paint to match. The shine is now simply amazing I feel that the waxing has brought it out even more.

Nice job. Done right, single stage paint is amazing. Especially like the engine compartment.

Looking great! I detailed mine today with $3.00 in quarters at the local car wash to high pressure off the nasty cloud of dead bugs I hit the other day (well, they weren't dead until they slammed into me at speed). Good 'nuff for me, for now
