This 1986 911 was an all steel conversion to the popular 90s era slant nose look.
Weekend Rides was commissioned by its owner, who purchased the salvaged 911 from us, to repair it On our Celette bench.
After fitting all of the fixtures and pulling the body into proper specifications we cut off both rear quarter panel tail light areas and some of its center rear body panel. Once the torsion bar fixtures engine motor mounts and rear shocks fit the Celette fixtures we then moved to doing the sheet metal panel fitting.
Donated from our unparalleled inventory of used 911 parts we grafted on donor tail light pocket and sections of rear quarter panels. We installed a used engine lid to ensure proper gaps and it’s release, and installed a used rear bumper.
When we repaired the front nose panel and left apron we had to pull its nose and push upward its shock recess.
Once the jigs fit the Celette MZ towers we replaced the left all steel fender with a coincidental red one from our inventory of slant nose fenders!
This 1996 993 cabriolet we saved for a special client when nobody in usa would attempt rebuilding “elke” after she was the victim of a hit and run in nyc. We sectioned most of the rear body on the Celette while preserving our trademark of keeping as many original seams as possible. Elke has her original door jamb welds and most of the factory welds on her rear quarter panel to latch, by utilizing one of our used rear bodies from a donor 993 in inventory we accomplished our clients objective.
Refinishing continues on converting this 1986 911 in all steel to 930 turbo look with slant nose fenders and box rocker panels
2015 Porsche Macan S repair left rear body
We have sectioned in the rear with one of our used quarter panels, replaced the entire left rear suspension and aligned the Macan S prior to cutting off its damaged quarter panel.
At Weekendrides our trademark is avoiding factory seam sections whenever possible, by using butt weld techniques we are able to maintain an original weld at joints, making repairs much harder to be detected. On this one we used a bit of both techniques, the rear corner we fastened and tig welded it on at its original seams but kept the door jamb untouched and original, we butt welded the outer seam by the door gap and cut through across the upper panel. We welded on a black quarter panel from a donor! However all of this will be repainted.
