Del's 968CS Restoration

As part of the Porsche GB Restoration Competition Del's 968 Club Sport is being restored.

The Porsche 968 that Guildford OPC is restoring is a car that is well known to the 968UK community as it was the Club Sport previously owned by one of our members, Del(username 'Heyou'), who sadly succumbed to cancer but not before making the most of his 968 at various tracks and keeping us all up to date about his exploits with fantastic write ups. So as you can imagine we have taken a close interest in the cars progress. OPC Guildford and Premier Panel Skills of Farnham, Surrey, have kept in touch with us and hopefully we have been of some service identifying parts etc. due to the wealth of knowledge available through the forum members.

The car is a left hand drive Club Sport and this was used by Del to go to various tracks including the Nurburgring Nordschleife and Spa Francorchamps.

As you can see below over recent years the car suffered a bit from lack of use and maintenance but this in fact made it an ideal candidate for a refurb and restoration, which has been taken on by Porsche Centre Guildford who have entrusted it to Premier Panel Skills for the work being an approved Porsche bodywork centre.

It would be no mean feat to bring this car back to showroom condition, and that does mean showroom condition, literally as if it had just come off the transporter and placed in a showroom.

The project is obviously still in progress and we can't wait to see the finished car unveiled.
