What the photos show
- Black paint is mirror-glossy on every panel in the studio photos, with panel gaps even around the doors and both lids — no paint or body budget from these photos.
- The chrome is show quality throughout: bumpers with overriders, the Talbot-style mirror, windshield frame and the PORSCHE 1600 Super lettering all bright and straight — no chrome budget from these photos.
- Chrome wheels with crest hubcaps wear fresh-looking Vredestein classic tires — no wheel or tire budget from these photos.
- The red leather interior looks freshly trimmed: seats taut and unmarked, door cards and carpets crisp, rubber floor mats and pedal rubbers new-looking — no interior budget from these photos.
- The engine-bay close-up shows concours-level detail, with a correctly labeled Bosch coil, clean carburetor linkage and fresh finishes — no engine-bay budget from these photos.
- The top is shown folded under its boot in the exterior photos, so the canvas itself is not displayed raised — even on a car presenting this well, the top fabric is worth one look in person, from these photos.
Money: the photos suggest no spend at all — this is a finished, restored car, and the budget belongs to verifying the restoration's paperwork rather than any work visible here.
