More pics of the build
Brace added to the suspension mount points for added strength. Plate welded to the brace for even more strength to the front apron. Attached image(s) |

Looks absolutely great and very professionally done! I especially like the spare tire. This is something I have planned to do also but haven’t looked into yet. Looks like a 4 lug Fuch wheel with space saver tire, my question is the tire is it a space saver and if so where did you get it as I sort of thought they require a special wheel and tire?

The tire came from PMB you will have to ask Eric Shea where he got the tire. Send him a PM he will answer. |

The 911 guys and some 914ers put them on Fuchs all the time. Many tire shops won't do it, some can't do it and if you find one that does a good job, pay them extra. It's not easy. You should be able to buy a space saver wheel and tire for $50-75. |

Incredible job. No one EVER realizes how much work goes into a nicely finished project like that, but we and our cut fingers, broken tools, and German cusswords can totally appreciate it. Really fine looking - love the vertical spare.

This is a great idea. The spare tire can come from a 944. Vredstein makes them I think.
