That new paint looks great! That backdate is coming along nicely.

my first, my current. my dads old 1986 Carrera that I just took ownership of after waiting forever for it. just finished cleaning it up (garage kept/"abandoned") for the past 10-15 years and barely used. replaced about $3000 worth of parts (mostly brakes) and other general service items and finally have it back on the road. took it out the past 4 days in a row. more miles than this car has seen in forever.....finally able to stretch its legs. 48,000 original miles.

Beautiful example dictoresno. Hopefully you get to put some more miles on it this summer and really enjoy it!

Thanks to pelican parts sending me everything I mostly needed, it’s back on the road. Drove it about 40 miles this morning!

I just took delivery on my first air-cooled Porsche. I have owned a 997.2 turbo S and a 178 Boxster S. This 81 Targa is a whole different kind of fun. I must say, there is definitely something about driving a slow car fast. Such a fun and analog experience.
