1983 911 SC bare metal repaint

I figured I'd start a thread on this car, Some might find it interesting or informative to see what goes into doing a high quality relatively basic repaint on a 911.

Car in question is owned by fellow forum member Dan of Touring Car Inc in Mathews NC, who kindly gave me permission to start a thread. Dan is top shelf and a really good guy. He contacted me through the forum and after some months I went down to TCI to pick up the car. Original plan was to strip to bare metal, work out any dents, block it out straight, and repaint in the original color using Glasurit 55 base and my favorite clear. Then cut and buff. Should turn out really nice.

Heading home to Virginia.


After arriving back in one piece (always nerve racking when I transport a client's car)



Some of the problem areas









Getting it stripped down.



Found a lot of filler in the hood.
