Oil Change, wash and wax, interior detail battery maintainer and covered it up. Like getting your prom date all dressed up and then just putting a tarp over her head and locking her in the closet. Except what I did to my boxster is not illegal.

Yes, TO....it's an 86 VF500F w/F1 pipes. I still have the original exhaust somewhere. Sadly, it gets very little use since I got the Box. North Jersey roads/traffic, a fuel leak (and my increasing level of self-preservation) are not conducive to short rides anymore.

But at this point, I figure its an appreciating asset with low miles and 20 years of dry garage time.

Nice to see another 944 turbo/Boxster owner.
Have you ever been asked why you don't have a 911?

Car washed today

Slight drizzle this morning stopped and then just cloudy. Washed the Boxcar and applied the new black & brushed nickel crest. Had to use gasket from 'old' crest as the one sent would not stretch out nicely. Old gasket fit easily with no issues. Now car has sort of 'Outlaw' custom look that I favor. Thinking of having the wheels re finished in either chrome or current hyper silver. Now with snow in the forecast I don't think I will be driving her out anywhere soon.

Black crest

Here is a closeup of the crest or at least reasonably close.
