Porsche Oslo BLue

I have done a few posts about this car, one on overhauling the engine, another on stripping the car in prep for paint and a third on fixing rust on the bottoms of the doors. The original car was so rusty and damaged that I bought another shell for the customer and we had to do some minor prep work to get it ready for block sanding and paint.

The customer wisely chose Oslo Blue for the car, a super nice medium blue non-metallic color that has a slight bit of gray mixed in so it looks rich and kind of smoky. We are so happy with the door and hood gaps and how the car is so straight and detailed overall.

Now is the crunch time, re-assembly. We know that the old car had a good transmission, engine and brakes. We also removed the new wiring harness to re-install into this blue car but there is so much else that has to be done like a new headliner, carpets and dash top.

We have been restoring so many Ferraris lately that it will feel good to put a Porsche together which typically are easier than the detail oriented Italian cars.
