Show or Go?

Crono,
My $0.02 worth. Do the mechanicals first - all of them.
Then body.

For me it's not about style over substance or power over looks. It's just logical. Mint the body work, then start wrenching on it will end in tears.

Panels will get scratched, nicked etc. It's enivitable when doing that kind of work on this kind of car.
So leave the cosmetics until last. Otherwise you'll find you'll be doing it twice.

I agree that the mechanical should be first, if only to save the pretty parts from damage. How about upgrading to a 996 TWIN TURBO(!!!!! AWD), then for similar money you've got both--a nice body with twice the power you've got now....:dance:

Essentially, don't put lipstick on a pig. It's still a pig.
Iron out the working parts, then apply the makeup.
