What Did You Do to Your 911 Today?

[John Z Goriup]

Got Ruprecht back from the upholstery shop yesterday, and am happy to report that I am very pleased with the installation of the Tony Garcia / Autobahn Interiors supplied medium grey square-weave carpet set, which I ordered from Tony at this year's L.A. Lit Show.

In my opinion it was well worth the expense and hassle to change the dark & dreary Haaregarn carpeting which I started out with to the lighter colored, heavier and more luxurious squareweave material. Matches my Coco-Mat scissle ( spelling ?) mats much better as well. The Hargarn was simply too dark and solemn, and when I dropped small items I could never find them.

In the process I discovered a new resource for Bay area Porsche / collector car owners - would like to put in a good word with high recommendations for the following:

BASCOM TRIM & UPHOLSTERY
852 Aldo Avenue,
Santa Clara, CA 95054
Tel: 408. 727. 2292

General Manager: John Wardell

Large, clean shop, well staffed, very professional, high degree of competence and skills, reasonable price and best of all, constant updates by John, who himself owns a beautiful '83 911 triple black Cabrio, if anything other than what was initially discussed / estimated popped up. Car was not moved, kept inside at all times during its stay at Bascom, a detailed invoice and explanation for every line item …….in short, a very satifying experience. For what it's worth, seeing a SWB restoration by Jerry Woods Enterprises in the Bascom shop when I first visited them went a long way to establish confidence in their services.

Now, to finish the interior in time for the Werks Reunion.
