1986 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa
More updates! Dropped the car off at EPE in Natick MA for an alignment and the turbo tie rod installation. Rebel racing strikes once again and the technician told me that these were not OEM tie rods (despite what the website says). He was able to get them in but said they were more of a pain to work with vs the 'real' ones. So that kind of annoyed me after all I dealt with Rebel and their non-existent customer service.
This past Saturday was 80 degrees here so I did some yardwork in the morning and spent the afternoon in the garage. I got the frunk carpet back in:
Also removed the door pockets and rear seats for some rattle can restoration. The drivers side door pocket was not in place correctly and they were both faded, so I epoxied the broken areas and resprayed them with some Duplicolor fabric paint. Literally night and day difference, I was going to buy new ones, but this was a great $20 fix.
Some before pics:
aaand after
Got the car all cleaned up and ready to go for the PCA NER Ramble this weekend. Cannot wait to get some miles on it!
