Early_S_Mans Annie in the paint booth!

As a follow up to this thread:


http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/765184-warrens-annie-going-paint.html

KC started shooting the Signal Yellow yesterday and is getting the chassis in the booth today. After four years of collecting parts and saving the cash, I'm finally seeing some progress! More pictures later today.

Mark,

This is FANTASTIC! It is hard to comprehend that Warren has been gone for 5 years now?

The car is a monument to some very good men and women.

I admired Warren for all of his unselfish assistance in my early 911 ownership and now he will live on in Annie.

Thanks for sharing this.

Dan Bleskey

So cool.

Great pict's; esp the one starting your 2nd pic post! - it's as if Warren is looking in on us again with a new life.

I'm with Island - the "bucket" shot is nicely done a la Warren's original shot.

Some bodywork & painters are just magicians. I would love to scrub and paint my own car.

Clean paint and a clean start. Great job Mark for keeping this going. At this rate you will be ready to debut at HCR14 in March.

Gorgeous. Reminds me why SY is one of my favorite all time Pcar colors.

Thanks for all the kind words. Annie’s restoration is dedicated to Warren’s memory and I’ll always consider her as his car. From my discussions with him before his passing, he very much looked forward to the day when Annie would be roadworthy once again. He stayed positive about that until the end. I’m glad to be able to help see it through.
