A belated welcome to Carpokes, and I love your projects! Feel free to post progress pics! The OK Corral is meant for great non-Porsche stuff like that if you are so inclined. I think many of us are fans of all cool cars/projects, not 'just' Porsches. Would I be weird to admit the VW Rabbit-Truck is my favorite?

Nah, @Tom , I was a sucker for the Bunny Truck® myself. But it was the hardest resto I've done, took the longest, and the only one (so far) in which I ended up underwater. But it was a really fun rig with a 2.0L 16v and early GTI super close ratio 5 speed. Spunky as all get out.
I may post an occasional update on whatever my current project is in the Corral. Most car people like seeing things like that.

Thought it was time to update the car's config. The 19" wheels and Contis are gone, replaced by a set of silver 20" Carrera S wheels, wrapped in Toyo Proxes Sport A/S tires. The spray-on PPF was looking a bit tired on the rockers, so it was replaced with Expel PPF. Factory Map and Nav was activated via AiO SD card, and Power Steering Plus will be activated via coding this weekend.Arne2 wrote: Tue Apr 04, 2023 10:08 pm Rhodium Silver, black leather. PDK, 19" Boxster S wheels, Premium Pkg Plus, rear spoiler and door handles in gloss black. Spray-on PPF (ClarityCoat) on the entire front clip, rockers and rear fenders up to the seams. Four fresh Conti Extreme Contact Sport, now a bit more worn.

No desire at all for a new one, this Cayman still pushes all my buttons.
