Picked up my 2056 from EMW today and now the fun starts. Powder coated tin, rebuilt alternator, Webers, a few tricks. Also at the same time, /6 rear stubs & hubs, 6 x 15 Fuchs and all 911SC front end to include Bilstein struts, big brakes, etc.

Speedy is excited, and he's ready to go faster.Attached Image Attached Image

Suggestion: Ditch those bolt-on valve covers for the stock ones. The stockers usually don't leak, the bolt-on ones usually do. The stock ones also don't pull rocker studs out of the head....

I didn't spec the valve covers. AT ALL. I don't think those will end up on my engine.

The four lug Fuchs will be sold.

"Keep going you will be driving again soon."

I have a fully functioning 1.7 "powerhouse" in the car right now, so I'm mobile. To do the front and rear suspension, I'll be on jack stands for a few days, them back rolling. I love to drive this car.

Congrats!

I need to save up a little bit more money to go get a 1.7 that is available for my car!
