Its actually crazy how much that color changes based on light and pics...especially for a "matte" based cerakote!

Cant wait until the actual paint!
 
@kelly saad confirmed color availability so we are a GO!!

He has also graciously offered to come up to CO to spray the engine compartment the new color while the motor is out. How amazing is that!!

@Cruisers and Co will get everything torn down and prepped. Hopefully we can get this done in the next couple of weeks...

Color remains classified...its a period correct color from Porsche and it will be one of one without any doubt! Guess are encouraged!

Thanks for hanging out with me along this journey!

Okay, so it’s not period correct. But Miami Blue is my favorite Porsche color hands down!

I don’t think the Miami Blue is a good fit for an 80. But on a 911…come on!

Edit: sorry for clogging up your build thread with this. Let me know if you want me to remove it.
 
I did consider this blue however, it’s one of my friends cars…but ultimately let the family decide and I’m significantly out number by females.

There’s a hint!

Not a lot of progress has happened this week since color choices were being made and nothing was going back into the engine bay until that direction had been decided. We were also waiting on our cerakote guy and man is it killer. Cleaning up the shop this morning and couldn't help but put the core back together. Glacier silver with titanium red 😍

That’s freaking beautiful!

Hopefully my paint choice looks as good!
 
Somebody that's a little more knowledgeable than me on the poverty packs may chime in and say that I'm wrong but I believe that is true @BuckarooBanzai. The 93/4's had them as well
That’s what I was thinking. I don’t love either center console personally. It’s too low and too far away for me to use as an armrest. That’s one of reasons I ended up getting a Scheelmann seat.
 
@shellb I noticed in one of the interior pictures that your truck has a different center console than my 97. Is that because of the poverty package?

It must be! Funny thing is I bought a new console set up with new rest pad and everything...

@Cruisers and Co was like, you don't have that in your rig, its totally different!

I couldn't remember and was buying while the truck was in his shop!

Well now Johnny gets a new set up for his rig!

I dig the simple useless set up that I have, haha.
 
@Cruisers and Co putting in work!

We have @kelly saad in bound starting tomorrow.

Lots of paint discussion today and throwing out ideas.

Despite everything being torn down, it’s all actually coming together!!

Subscribed, great thread! I vote keep it the stock color :cool:
 
Bro that’s a totally separate account! We have to be disciplined with our spending.

I now have 2 accounts. Land Cruiser and Land Cruiser Friends. They only mix when we’re together.

The more fun one is completely funded.
