I thought I would share a couple photos of a 911 I have been working on. It came to me with 10 very bad paint jobs, very poorly repaired crash damage and fist sized rust holes in the fenders, rockers and left door jamb. It's far from finished. But at least I now have paint on the doors and shell.

I was looking through some photos and though you guys may be interested in the bumper install I did for the 911. The owner wanted a glass bumper. It came with a couple flimsy strips of fiber glass to mount it. Well That was not going to do. I built a inner bumper out of 4130 tubing. I heated and bent the tubing to match the curve of the bumper, made some mounting brackets and bonded it to the back of the glass.
