The entire body was disassembled, and the paintwork was executed to show the quality level, and the gaps and panel fit are exceptional. The interior was reupholstered with red vinyl, Haargan black carpets, and a new headliner, along with the dash in the correct German materials by a well-known Porsche specialist. A wooden steering wheel sits in front of the VDO instrumentation. The brightwork was stripped and triple-plated to show condition. The original floor pans were stripped to bare metal and undercoated with Wurth German undercoat. All the suspension and hardware components have been finished to factory specifications.

Cylinder heads were resurfaced with new valves, engine tin was powder-coated, and all hardware cad-plated to original specifications. The matching 5-speed transmission (Type 901) was fully rebuilt with new synchros and bearings. All the braking components, including calipers, rotors, brake pans, brake lines, and master cylinder, were rebuilt or replaced.
