Amazing work as always Chad! That color is stunning! You made it even more beautiful after polishing it. Sun shots are amazing too!
 
Excellent work! What type of lift is that, and have you used it on cars with electronic suspension?
 
Nice work Rasky! Great write up, and before/after pics! Customer should be stoked when they pick it up!
 
Looking very good buddy. Those sun shots are unreal. Excellent job :)
 
Can't get a better "Merlin" shot than that last one! Great job the car looks perfect!
 
Thanks Guys! :thankyousign:


Excellent work! What type of lift is that, and have you used it on cars with electronic suspension?

Hey Mike. That lift is a Direct-Lift Pro 6MR. I have lifted cars with the "auto-leveling suspensions" if that's what you mean. I didn't know it at first but most will have a setting in the car for "jack mode" or a way to turn it off when lifting them.

FYI, the frames on these lifts are pretty much the same from various manufacturers but will vary with the quality of the hydraulics and other components. I went with Direct-Lift simply because it was local but had I done more research I would have went with something else. It works great though and will lift most all cars but unfortunately not the Tesla's. I put a Bendpak SP-7X in the new garage for this reason. :props:

 
Beautiful car, great craftsmanship! :xyxthumbs:
 
Nice work! Idk if you coated the wheels, but I did not enjoy coating a set of those on a Boxter. My hands are too big to get in the little spaces lol
 
Very extensive photo library to demonstrate the full work that went into this :) I love me a nice glossy porsche. Check out my album as well
 
I am the owner of this 911 and I am thrilled beyond belief! Rasky does amazingly good work. The color is called Midnight Blue metallic and it has a Sea Blue interior. I've only owned blue colored cars since 1983 and this one just called out to me. I picked it up last May from a large Porsche dealer in Illinois and there were holograms and spider webs all over it. It looked like the person who prepped the vehicle for sale improperly used a rotary buffer.
