Fitting the rear window seal doesn't look like an easy job?

I'm getting towards the age where I'm like the Dowager Countess in Downton Abbey "What is a weekend?" the days all roll into each other!
405 look like it's coming along nicely - I'm sure the neighbours will be delighted when the sanding's finished as well!
Keep up the excellent work - it looks good in the bare ali doesn't it?

good evening all !

Sorry i have not been on the forums !

had a bit of bad luck recently - had a-big accident in the 944 Turbo, and then i've had covid and just finished my isolation yesterday.

so finally got back in the sun and started sanding again !

Hope you are all keeping well !

best,

Hass

Hope you're alright - even if Porsche isn't.
Look forward to further updates in due course!
All the best

@AndrewA thankfully everyone involved are all okay, thank you for asking.

Unfortunately the Porsche will have to undergo major bodywork surgery but again main thing is that no one was seriously injured.

Absolutely yes back onto the 405 !

Hope you and the cars are all keeping well ?

Best
