    Keep the horsehair padding.
    They are the main source of that vintage Porsche smell...

    Looks amazing but keep it off those muddy roads or those factory fresh undersides won't stay that way for long. A real concours example coming along here.

    You guys do know that the original post is two years old, right?
    There is what I want, there is what I can find, and then there is what I can afford...
