[Lsr911]

Purchased as a roller in 1994. Quickly converted to 5 lug with RSR struts and alloys. Then it sat in storage until November 2021. Yes, 27 years in my storage! First step was to strip down to just the tub and placed on a rotisserie. Off the body and paint. Brad Mayer longitudinal kit installed along with GT rear stiffing kit. Trailing arms boxed at the same time. Build is for performance street. The 914 flexible flyer issues should be eliminated. Additional body work eliminated the turn signal warts and deck lid lock assembly. Battery box replacement was the only sheet metal repair needed. Stock front fenders stretched to easily accommodate 7” fronts. Rear fenders metal worked and stretched to accommodate up to 9” wheels. All factory lips and profile retained.

Then off to the media blaster for a total blast strip. Next step was a electrostatic epoxy primer. This material goes every where and the bindis incredible. After the trip back to paint and body the prep work begins. A lot of time making certain gaps are correct then prime and block and block until it is straight and smooth as glass. Next step is color selection.
