23 hours...... 2007 Porsche Turbo 996 & its much needed attention
Where do I start? First off,
Let’s correct the fact that this is a 997 not a 996. Sorry for any confusion
Well......... coating 4 of my vehicles and 3 belonging to my parents as well as doing a number of corrections on friends & in-laws cars. Finally it came time to work on a car I’ve had my eye on for a while. A 2007 Porsche Turbo that my uncle owns. He’s a car nut too. This is his baby! (less then 8500 Miles)
Timing was perfect! I Sent the wife and kids away on vacation since the kids were off from school for the week. Which left me home alone with some time on my hands.
My uncle agreed to leave the car with me to work on in between my work schedule (60-70hr/5 days - work week)
Mind you, I do not do this for money, I do it because I enjoy taking something and making it look nicer then it already does. I don’t even work in any aspect of the car world. This is purely hobby and no, I wouldn’t accept a penny from my uncle.
He dropped the car off Sunday morning and that afternoon the family was on their way to a much warmer place. Then my fun started.
Please feel free to comment or make suggestions, I still love to learn and perfect my skills
Disclaimer: the condition of his vehicle is not a representation of the way he maintains his cars, it is due to an unfortunate incident that occurred at his home and not being able to garage his cars for the past two years due to the amount of construction going on. So this vehicle sat in the back of a yard with two car covers on it.
