Rafael just sent me some pictures of my seats and some door covering’s. He said he still has about a week’s worth of things to do to the Body. I’ll keep everyone posted!

Nice work. Those look exactly like my old 914 seats!
Nice to see progress shots, isn't it?
Beautiful seats. Love the color.
I just asked Rafael to send me some more pictures of the Body when he has time this week.when he does I’ll post them.
Anybody that wants to come over and help catalog and go through some boxes and can tell me what some of these things are would be greatly appreciated I’ll buy the beer or whiskey. Your choice and a Good Steak! I still have 4-5 boxes at my shop. Any taker’s?

I looked and I'm 5.5 hours away from you ( WV) if closer I would certainly take you up on the steak.... if you want to take some pics and email them to me I can ID the boxed stuff for you
I will probably take you up on that. I know what some or most of the parts are. I have some of packages that say 912/911 1965-79. I believe there are quite a few pieces of weather stripping for a coupe in one of the boxes. Heck I have a interior lamp switch for 911/912/930 1965 through 79 luggage lamp switch.
Thanks Alan I appreciate it!

I see 2 chrome rear bumperettes for an early 912/911.
I saw them too. Looks like a full set of aluminum over-riders for a Speedster too.
Roll Bar is in!! Rafael said 4 or 5 days it should be ready to ship. It’s sitting on one of his chassis’s while they work on it.

I think I'm gonna like those vents, Arden.
Arden.... Is Rafel's coupe body sanded to where it is ready for paint?
@Alan Merklin No but he says it will be pretty close. I’m sure we will have a little sanding to do but I hope not to much.
She’s getting closer!!! Rafael sent me some more pictures this morning.

Looking good! I feel like I've asked you before (in a different thread maybe?) but what color is your Speedster going?

@ALB I’m leaning towards black or a darker gray.
Dark colors do take more body prep than lighter colors. That prep work is costly in US. DrClock used a nice molten steel grey on one he did 2 years ago (with baseball glove interior).
I sure like the folding top assembly - assume it will come with that fabric installed? Does he still make and export the top assemblies?
