Porsche 934 on BBC Midlands Today

by John on August 8, 2011

Porsche 934 recreationist, Specialist Vehicle Preparations, independent Porsche specialist in Droitwich, Worcestershire, was recently featured on BBC’s Midlands Today.

The news piece followed on from a competition, the brainchild of good friend Nick Bailey at local PR firm, Propel Technology. Nick’s customer – Surface Processing Limited – runs an acid tank dipping process to remove old paint from car bodyshells prior to their restoration. My own Porsche had the same process applied in Switzerland when it was restored.

The BBC’s Top Gear website ran a competition to identify the stripped bodyshells, which attracted half a million entrants in pretty short order. The campaign is simple, and fun. A great idea and a top result.

The BBC clip features Dominic Delaney from SVP (Worcester Porsche Servicing), talking about the benefits of acid dipping and keeping classic cars on the road. The 934 behind Dom in the clip is just coming out of build, and about to enter some races in a classic race series towards the end of this season.

More 934 pics coming: a feature car for sure. It’s all good stuff!
