I'm prepping a car for long term storage.
Under a car port but exposed to the elements and pests from the order "rodentia". Going to get a healthy dose of mothballs. . Cleaned and waxed before it goes. Should I buff it or leave it as is? Right now "Wax on- Heavy" |

Nice looking car!
One of the last cars my dad had was a 94 964 Speedster, same red as your car. This car had the Recaro Carbon Fiber seats. You MUST have a waist below 40" to fit. For me, it would have been most comfortable NAKED! I couldn't have ANYTHING in my pockets before I sat down in the car. 19K, pretty much perfect car. I was always super apprehensive when I drove it... We were overly cautious with it. He also had a 95 C4s, 200k when the odometer stopped long before he bought it. Hard top, beat to death, ugly ass grey, many issues. The passenger door looked like it had been attacked by a run-away weed eater or a crazed wolverine! This thing was a roach of the first order. His wife named it "Hobbit". Hobbit was the single most fun Porsche 911 I've ever driven. You could "drive it like you stole it" because it LOOKED that way! Beater 964s should never be passed up. Wish he still had both today. He had a Convertible D when I was born. That's another I wish had stayed... One time, when I was leaving the Porsche dealership with a tiny bag of hardware for it, I thought, wow, these parts are MORE expensive than Kay Jewlers by weight! Back to MSM. I "fixed" the damage to the point I can now open the door. Got about 80% of the damage cleared. My oldest son received a "professional level" airbrush set up for Christmas from his wife. He says the control is good enough that he can write in cursive with it, and it looks like a ball point pen. We're going to test that puppy out! Most of the damage is in an anti-rock chip textured area which should make the repairs far less critical. It's very low on the passenger's side. If it had to happen it's best it happened where it did. Would have been much better to AVOID altogether! Have a Happy New Year! |
