Looks good. Did you paint that yourself?

Posted by: TimT Sep 22 2006, 05:03 PM

Ive done it all, from rust repair, to regearing the tranny, rebuilding the engine for the umpteenth time, installed EFI. I was determined to do it all myself, so I decided to paint it at home

havent updated my website in ages

Cool. What year is it? What size engine? What brakes are you running?

Doesn't this belong on the bird 911 board?

That is really cool.

More pics please...

yea possibly, but this board is much more fun

its a '69. I built a high comp 2.2 twin plug, TWM throttle bodies. EFI. Ti retainers, ARP bolts, Pauter rods, JE 10.5:1, 930 oil pump. front mounted oil tank, Had the ports hogged out....... tons of other goodies too.

8 way inverted Koni coil overs in the rear. RSR struts with revalved bilstiens in the front. 935 front susp ready to go in. spherical joints, etc..

Doors, front and rear fenders, roof are carbon fiber, or fiberglass. All the window glass is Lexan (front,rear,rear quarters, no door glass)
