Comprehensive Porsche restoration

Complete Porsche restorations, maintaining the highest level of originality

An F-Series 911 with hidden corrosion makes it impossible to finalize the scope of work prior to disassembly.

We restore entire Porsches, aiming for the highest possible degree of originality. Our benchmark is the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity: the document specifying the color, upholstery, and options with which that specific unit left the factory.

A comprehensive restoration is not merely a price quote; it is a conversation. Before dismantling anything, we agree on the project's extent, as the scope determines the outcome and the car's future value.

What is cataloged before dismantling

A comprehensive restoration coordinates bodywork, mechanics, electrical systems, interiors, and documentation so that one discipline does not later have to undo a decision made by another.

Preserve, repair, or replace

Complete dismantling and cataloging allow us to distinguish between preservation, repair, and replacement. The scope is reviewed when areas are revealed that were not visible while the car was assembled.

The reference point may be the Certificate of Authenticity and the original configuration, although a car intended for frequent use may require different decisions than a collector's unit.

Determining the scope

Not all cars require the same approach. For a rare, well-documented unit, originality is paramount, and any deviation detracts from its value. For a car intended for regular use, it makes sense to prioritize reliability—even at the cost of strict factory accuracy—and that is a decision for the owner to make, not us.

What we do not do is start without having had that conversation. Half of the projects that arrive poorly finished from elsewhere started without it.

What the project includes

Complete disassembly and cataloging of every part.
Bodywork: sheet metal, anti-corrosion treatment, and painting in original colors.
Engine and transmission, in the engine workshop.
Electrical system, brakes, suspension, and steering.
Interior: upholstery using period-correct materials.
Sourcing parts—which, for a sixty-year-old car, accounts for half the project.

Projects we have already completed

Below are six restorations detailed step-by-step, featuring photos of the process. Among them are a 911 F-series from 1965—which arrived disassembled in boxes after seven years of being moved around—and a 930 Turbo that arrived following an engine-bay fire.

Frequently asked questions

01 Can a full quote be provided before disassembly?

An initial scope can be defined, but hidden corrosion and previous repairs can only be accurately assessed once exposed. Any significant findings are presented before expanding the scope of work.

02 Which parts should be preserved?

Salvageable original parts linked to the car's identity are prioritized. Safety, wear, and availability determine when repair is no longer a reasonable option.
