Doug...rust advice please

[pwd72s]

Tongue firmly in cheek here, but since Doug often says pre 911SC's are rusty, maybe he could help me find some rust? I've tried for years, haven't seen any. (Actually...this my first attempt at posting a pic. Needed an excuse )

Have you tried looking under the moss . .. we know that’s why you bought a green 911.
Okay I give, that is beautiful.
and Geez; parked on a wet lawn in Oregon. . .you really know how to rub it in!

'81 SC COUPE

[Doug Zielke]

A nice car, Paul.
But hey... what's wrong with the bumpers?

[Bobboloo]

One word. Sweet .I love the the 7x16 fuchs on that car.

Beautiful, Paul.
Yeah, structural rust. My new acquisition ('73.5 T) is rust free. I keep looking over it and all's I can find is a tiny bit (bigger in actuality, I know) by the passenger side battery tray. My old '75 2.7 had no rust either....

OK now that you've got a digital camera Paul, don't just tease us with one measly photo. Let's see an entire photo set!

I love that car.

And since it looks like the sun was behind a cloud in the original picture, here's a slightly color-corrected version:



The better to see that awesome green paint.

Hate to admit it, but no digital camera here. I sent Jeff (Rufblackbird) some snail mail snapshots. He was kind enough to scan them and shoot 'em back to me via e mail. Rims are 7X15 fuchs, tires are 195/65 Yoko A008P's, sadly no longer made in that size. Still don't know what I'm going to do next, tire wise. Jack, thanks for the enhancement...the original photos printed too dark. Okay, here we go...see if I can post some more Jeff sent. PLease forgive my lack of computer skills....

[pwd72s]

I can't figure out how to attach multiple images...so here we go, one at a time...

[pwd72s]

The last one of the rusty old beater....as all pre '74's are

[david w.]

I want those wheels!
I'll take the car too!

Here's a few more cleaned-up photos of this beauty:

[pwd72s]

Thanks for the clean-ups guys. Obviously, I need to learn more about pics, how to post 'em. The car? Pretty much a box stock '72S coupe. Suspension mods and the 7X15" fuchs, also added the H-1's, but the fogs are factory. Repainted the bumper after removal of front bumperettes. Just common stuff, done back in the 70's. Oh, also switched to a factory stainless muffler, euro parking & tail lenses. Curt & Jack, thanks for the paint comment. Heck, the paint is older than a lot of guys posting here. And yeah, I'll admit it...I love my car, and I'm doing some out and out BRAGGING here...

Paul, The cars looking great. The best thing is that green is my favorite color and everybody knows that 72's were the best 911s made

Your car looks beautiful Cindy
