Default P1800s. It's been a while.

Well still have the 66 p1800s. Every time I come to sell it take it for one last drive. Then I can't part with it. Must be 4 years now since restoration completed. Front of car Inc doors all take back to metal and replacement panels fitted . No rust. The rear seemed very solid and was rubbed down and repainted. Noticed a bit of rust around the rear wheel arches and rear valence. Was never happy with the paint job so decided on repair and repaint. A can of worms was again opened. Very shoddy repair work an loads more rot and rust. 7 new rear body panels now fitted rubbed down , sealed and base coat applied.
Ready for repaint and lacquer. Also having new roof liner installed. I retire in July and want to get some use out of the car. Go to a few shows and enjoy it before selling.
Will always have a classic car but think a 944 s2 would be an easier car to live with. Had them in the past many years ago before they were classics.
Regards Paul
