Our Process (Part I)
Arrival/Disassembly
Vehicle is carefully inspected, disassembled and parts are organized.
The first stage of our restorations is a thorough inspection of your 911, including putting the vehicle on a lift; inspecting the sheet metal, engine, suspension components etc. We are completely transparent during the entirety of the restoration process and at this point, depending on the condition of the vehicle, we will recommend a restoration or if possible to source another vehicle. Early Porsche 911’s were not galvanized so rust removal and repair will contribute to the final cost of your restoration. At this time, we will discuss with you how much metal work is necessary to bring the car back to original spec.
Once you have been fully briefed we will begin the disassembly, organization and categorization of all parts on your vehicle. All body panels are removed (doors, deck lid, hood, front/rear bumpers). We use as many original Porsche parts as possible during our restorations to guarantee the quality and authenticity of each restoration. We take great care in the disassembly of these cars and make sure every part is organized and stored safely. We have a large inventory of used early 911 parts at our disposal and if for whatever reason your car is missing a part there’s a good chance we have it.
Next, we send your 911 to be media blasted. This insures all rust, debris, old paint and dirt have been removed completely from the car and it is ready to be worked on.
A light coat of primer is applied once we get the car back from the media blaster to prevent surface rust before being painted.
