Isn't that the truth,resale,go fast Red.
My 2.7 carrera was originally Lime green with chrome opt, then Red and now yellow.

Almost an LGBT 911 with this rainbow colours over the years....

Back then everyone wanted a red Porsche.

I feel lucky that this 911 previously had just a 80's resale red paint job. We found under the red paint a straight, no hit, no rust, never widened, non played with car. I find it hard to believe that this Aubergine colour was painted over?

A big thank you to Clyde for directions along the way, so that I can do the right thing for this 911 restoration, his 11th hour input on the painting details on a 73 model were important.

Only 11th hour because you asked 11th hour
