Default New to me Guards red 95 993

Hello,
Well after enjoying two track days witht the Shelby club in my SY TT.
It was in need of a good wash. Took the time to clean up my new to me 95 993. This is the sixth 993 I have owned and third 95 guards red one.
What do you guys think ?

Al- at this point I would have thought you had learned your lesson about selling your 993s. Honored to still own you first one! Hopefully this one is a keeper!

Doc_porsche,
The seats are from the Speed Yellow twin turbo.
They are sport seats. All manual except for the electric reclining.
They seem to seat much lower then the full electrics I had on the my old car which now belongs to Cactus.

P-Daddy,
Not sure what else i may do to it. I do have a guards red duck tail sitting on the shelf
I m curious to see what it may look like with the rs skirts and rs front spoiler.

I also may de the Pete leland muffler modifications to it and install the air induction tube to the motor sound cover. If i can find a set of R compund tires for the Forgeline wheels would be great when I take it to the track.

Ilko,
It has the beilsteins PSS 10, RS adjustable sway bars and other suspension upgrades I cant recall. Of course the RS club sport stuff, 996 Sport seats, RS motor mounts, Forgeline race wheels with 235 and 285 tires, upgraded three piece front rotors. It seems to pull really strong, so It may be chipped.

Brendan, I m gladd to see you still have the second Porsche I ever owned.
Now if we could work out a trade for your Orange GT3 rs
