Sizzle Chest (and GearHead_1):
Thanks for the explanation of the "fried-egg" moniker/nickname. I kinda "see" it in your straight-on pic of the front end of this 911 in your driveway. NEVER knew such a nickname was associated with a 911. Now we all do.
I also learned that Adam`s Graphene coating can be used on plastic trim. Made those exterior trim pieces look nice-and-black like-new.
Just one question (we knew it was coming, Captain Obvious!):
Why did you use Menzerna 4500 (now called Super Finish Plus 3800) as a polish-burnishing (jeweling?) last-step on this particular paint? What pad do you use with this polish?
Great detailing on this 911. Thanks for posting. As many 911`s as you have detailed and posted over the years in this forum, I never tire of seeing them.
AND on a completely different note, BUT related directly to this series of 911, do you know if the owner has replaced the Intermediate Shaft Bearing or IMS, as it is known, in this particular 911? I know that this bearing has been the subject of great angst and repair trouble for many 911`s in this series over the years, and maybe you know a little more about this "problem" in talking with 911 owners of this series because of your detailing of such 911`s and attendance of/participation in 911 car-club/group events over those years.
Do you know of any bought-when-new 911 owners of this series that joined in the class-action law-suite of Porsche to recover the repair cost of this "problem" beyond the warranty period??
