Yes you are right. To fix it properly -- with a Celette and dedicated Porsche 911 jigs -- it takes expertise, significantly more time and more money. All in scarce supply with insurance copmany service providers. The insurance companies generally decide not to touch it. And from a business model perspective it makes sense.
But I have been afflicted with the psychosis of loyalty to this particular Porsche. One day she will repay the favor!
The buckle in the door is minor but we would greatly benefit from others' experience and expertise in getting out the kinks. I had hoped that David Liam of Runge Eleven (
