Haha- all good ;-) I will need some help with those Petri wheels though. They sound like they are in rough shape. I hope the Alpina is the 380mm but not the end of the world if not. Did they make flat spoke 370mm Alpinas? I've seen the 370mm Prototipos in 911's but they weren't Alpinas.
On another note, I also found out the car was originally delivered to Horst Meier in Germany. He's supposed to have been tied to German motorsport somehow? I'm trying to find out more details on that.
Well, it will likely be a while before I get into it (outside of making sure it's in general good health), and still looking at planning and direction. Thanks for your support!

Not at all @tferrer! Just ribbing you and providing social commentary on the BaT CSL comments. ~1,000 CSL’s manufactured and everyone seemed to own one “back in the day”. I hope you know that I had zero doubt.
I also have zero doubt that you will make it amazing. When you get the wheels, post the 38. We can tell you if it is a CSL wheel. Lots of options for restoring. The Petri stitch isn’t as uncommon or difficult as the momo stitch so you can reproduce the CSL leather fairly easily (if you pay attention to the details).
