Porsche Prep 2
5 Oct 2022
In a video call we discussed the paint chips on the nose of the car. I suggested glazing putty to fill them. Britt’s wife, Chris didn’t like that idea.

Following a battery charge and jump, it took a push start to get the motor running. Not surprising seeing as it was dropped off on 10 June.
Initial disassembly and sanding commences.
30 minute video call discussing needed parts and questioning how to remove the front badge.
Chat from Jim to Britt:
Since the 944 emplem doesn’t go back on until after cured paint, I’m going to hold off ordering it knowing that there’ll be other stuff that will be needed from Pelican Parts. Once it goes over $100 it’s free shipping. I’ll get the tail light gaskets into the mail tomorrow. Need door handle & mirror base gaskets too I’ll bet.
Parts order placed:

I have about 100 photos to go through to document the entire prep process for Lawrence, but for now, here’s a quick update:
It’ll be rolled out of the booth later today for a photo session.

Haven’t been seeing many Porsches in the wild this year (only one this week). I’ve been trying to regain my normal walking regimen of 6 – 8 miles or more per day before I fell victim to the plague. Long covid recovery now — about 2 miles per day, sometimes nearly 3 (with assist of walking stick & wife at my side). Here are some quick grabs of early morning sightings along our way over the past three or four days.
