... for now. The rest will be paid once the car's electrical referbishment is done. I'll repaint the car myself, but for the price and rareness of a 964 Turbo Cab, I'll deal with it. So, what would be a cool paint scheme for this car, the wilder, the better.

Now, I know this car is rare, but I can't find any good pics of this model. I did find these though. I edited someones child out of one, and the other is badly painted.

Here's the plan:
Custom paint the exterior to a classy yet different look.
Fully detailed interior with a nice sound system
Fully detailed trunk and engine areas.
Chrome rims?
upgraded electronics?
lowered?
racing pedals, shiftknob.
euro look lights?

Options so far:
Red leather interior with silver exterior
Tan leather with red or black exterior
Black cloth with Gulf colors and roll bar with harness'

Any ideas? I'll get pics of the actual car when I get it home and as I progress on the project.

Redshift, if you're really having trouble with your gums, ask your dentist about Rotadent. They may even have a website, but that sucker sure worked for me.

Not quite, it's about 1/3 scale plastic. This Power Wheels car is amung the rarest. It's 4' long and 2' high. It has an 18 volt battery which makes if far faster than any other car in it's class... as a Turbo should be.

The car will need a fair bit of work. The doors are a bit loose and the body is a little rough. The battery was updated to the non-burning style though. The interior is a little faded but otherwise it's "straight and sound".

As I said before, I'll be painting the body in a proper Porsche scheme. The interior will be upolstered, painted and carpeted. I'm looking for a radio to put in. I may also do a two pedal conversion. I'll modify the car for headlights and tail lights too. The body is a good representation of a 964, but the motor needs work to be acceptable. The Steering wheel looks a lot like the Porsche wheel. I'd like to add some leather to that too.

Now I just need a full sized one in the drive to match.

Now That is cool.
