A recent restoration ( 2016 / 2018 )by some of the best known Porsche experts in Los Angles California. The body was stripped by hand using the best chemical paint removers to bare metal. A beautifully preserved body with its factory panel fit can be seen in the photos was then primed and after days drying was painted with Single Stage Ivoryas per the factory. Thephotos show the progression of bare metal to primer toits final paint. The same procedure was applied to its original hardtop and was painted in the original body color of Ivory.When in bare metal we found corrosion on the door bottom, I could have left it alone but wanted it perfect so had Steve Hogue of Hogue Enterprise do the metal work. Those who know Steve know he is the very best here on the west coast. The pictures tell the story.
Body and Paint was completed by Stephen Cognata of The Paint Shop in Burbank California. Stephen came highly recommended and worked for both thehighly Acclaimed Angelo Pino and Mosiers Reatoration before starting his own business.
