    I'd say improve, you'll always see that line npt going parallel towards the end where it meets the reflector. If you can I'd improve it.

    Thought this pic take today is fitting for this forum

    Right side looks good. Left side looks off in my opinion. I would improve this if it were my car.

    Chris,

    Thanks, you are spot on with my thinking as well.

    Another interesting article from Wheels Magazine, May 1975 (Mel Nichols), the test drive appears to have been done in Europe with a pre-production example, pity it didn't get those brakes or the power curve he is talking about.

    Funny !! I also have a 308 GT4 (blu notte metalizzato) along with my 930 (brown copper) ! I guess we have similar tastes

    Original paint silver with lobster red interior & sport seats out on the streets of San Francisco today.

    I would love to see other enthusiasts cars if anyone else is up for sharing.

    This is what a lot of euro-concours people use, and so do I:
    Swizöl Deutschland Vertriebs GmbH & Co. KG: Kunststoffe und Gummi

    Sensational results. Totally dried out plastic (like the round plastic cap on the ignition) becomes just-as-new looking with one application.

    Tried a lot of stuff, and this is what has been the most satisfying.

    As I am currently rebuilding the rear end of my 76. Can anybody tell me what color the rear brake rotors should be? Silver or black? I bought a new set of Sebros and they are in grey primer out the box. Cheers

    Beautiful weather had the 930 out and about all long weekend.

    With it's rev-happy engine and light flywheel, the 930 feels quite racy, yet when cruising below boost, she makes quite a nice little tourer. Best of both worlds.

    Took my brown 76 out this weekend. Having fun with this one but unfortunately it will have to go soon :-(. If anyone is looking for a very special 76 please let me know. I would describe it as very nice driver quality. Paint to sample non-metallic brown, non-sunroof, chrome trim, sport seats, LSD and Fuchs painted Comet Diamond.

    They were in grey primer from factory. All surfaces were grey, except the ones for braking. It is a zinc-primer.

    Agreed, the 3.0 Turbo whaletail was the best looking, in my opinion.

    My favorite is the Weissach version as it has a nice smooth deck without the extra grille.
