    Tom that looks fantastic. My car was done by Stoddard several years ago and I wondered if they still did good work. I guess my question has now been answered.

    Tom - took my family to the shenandoah's last Fall and made a 45 minute detour to G&W just to poke around. This car was parked off to the side and looked really solid, but in need of some elbow grease, then I walked around to the other side. They did a phenomenal job repairing it... it is always heartwarming to see what was obviously a very original car set right again, specially an S. Congratulations.

    Unhappy New standard !

    Tom,you have set a new standard for all us keen 2.2S restorers to achieve !!
    How do I now go to the garage to face my daily(almost)driver after these pics?
    The finishing touch MUST be a 2.2 decal.On the AUS Porsche Cars site these are available again and I bought 2 for AU$5.10 each.
    Does your local PDealer have these?
    Your car is very similar to that which I have as a screen saver which is an early B/C/D series orange 911 something that I got from Google trawling and is originally from GermanCarFans.com.however I can't find it on their current site.
    I am depressed now!

    Tom,

    Here is link to the stickers on Pelican for $3.75.

    2,2L Sticker

    Or if you want to send me your address I'll send you the extra one I have. Somehow I ordered one from Pelican and one from Stoddards.

    Larry - I believe the color is "Signal Yellow"

    I had a 73E I sold last year, which was the same color. I've attached a picture and one of the original sport seats ordered with the car

    Larry,
    Here are the seats - not a great picture.

    Yes, Sweete you are correct, the color is Signal Yellow. I do have a 2.2 decal, just have not gotten around to it yet. It will go on soon though as original.
    Jared (JCR) talked me into the original hood badge as well. Even though it is not perfect, I am a believer now, because it just looks 'right'. Long live original badges!

    Jared- How about Waterford Hills instead of Woodward?

    Tom;
    Is that the origianal interior trim since the offer signal yellow has a tan interior?
    Also how is the engine? Did you restore that too?
