    A cool piece of history for me was that the production number that you can see on the dash was also on the interior of the doors. Hadn't seen that before on the doors.

    That's just lovely. What paint and formula are you using? Once I have my 70T mechanically sorted to my satisfaction I'd like to repaint it and this particular version of Irish Green looks spot on - not too blue, not too yellow, not too light or too dark.

    Always Glasurit 22 line. I have a great story to share about what I've done for the original Signal Green formula and what I had to do to get the last toners in the world. More to come.

    Fun with colour was always part of Weissach.

    All 12 drivers found themselves at the wheel of bespoke Porsche 911 Carrera RSRs. Built by Weissach specifically for the televised race series, the 15 cars were painted in a variety of TV-friendly lurid colours, from Bright Yellow to Acid Blue.

    I was at Jeff's shop yesterday when Scott showed up with the Irish Green 70S of Jeff's. The paint job was fantastic. Scott is very lucky to have such a talented painter on his team.

    Very cool! Love all the different shades. I could never get the Rgruppe guys to line up their cars so perfectly! Haha
