You can get 934 hubs used for 2000-2200 new reproduction 2800-3000. The centerlock wheel is the same . 962 hubs are a smaller diameter

Center lock hubs?? PM or email me. I will put you intouch with the retailer. I am just the fellow who will be manufacturing them, as well as wheels (lot to chose from with custom ET's) and brake hats etc....
Marketed throught the shop that built what appears to be Pelicans favourite project car... Cheers |
Here's a small update on the body work - having to make brackets etc to fit the bumpers, and having a horrible nightmare trying to get everything bolted to the car. This is just the initial phase - there is MUCH bodywork left to be done - just thought ya'll would like to see how its coming together.
From a body guy's point of view, the pieces need fiberglass added in quite a few spots as the moulds are either short or something. Had to throw away the DP style tail as it wouldn't fit the car at all! The rocker panels are going to go on soon, along with drip rails getting shaved, and 935 mirrors going on the body. But in short things aren't going too bad - if you can get past the mint green and small wheels you can see the true beast emerging. The 993 behind it gives a good guide as to just how wide this thing is. Its almost even on the passenger side and over a foot wider on the driver's side! Baby just redefined 'back'. Enjoy - and feel free to comment. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634533.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634358.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634386.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634400.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634425.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634442.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634456.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634478.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634495.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1195634516.jpg |

I love street rods!! If you would post more images of this one somewhere on the board, a few people may genuinely appreciate it!!!:p |
Brian, the tires coming with the rim halves are that wide if not wider :) but they're rain carved slicks. I'll post pics when they get to the shop in Van Nuys.

NICE!!!!!!!!! That thing is going to look mean!

Meat
Brian, these are the meats going on the rear....oh yeah, the 935 rim halves and wheel fans that are on the way to the shop.
Hard Knock Life for sure....on a 935 http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1196486161.jpg You can lose a large child in these... http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1196486200.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1196486253.jpg Spinning Wheel Fans of DOOM! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1196486234.jpg |
I like what you are doing with the car but I don't think the AIR GTR wing looks right with that body. You said comments welcome !:) Of course if you like it that is all that matters I just think that wing belongs on a later body style l. Obviously I like the wing itself because I ran it on my GT1 R

Van, I actually agree! The only problem is of all the barn finds I locate...I can't seem to dig up a 935 wing setup used before the Kremer style became prevalent. I love the design and the apprearance on other later models, but for now its my only option (to run a large wing blade as you did) for downforce.
I'm using this one until I can find an original or repro only. Plus being satin black I'm hoping that will hide most of its modern look. But yes, comments are welcome good/bad or ugly! |
Those gold wheel fans on a flat back mean azz 935 look machine are going to ROCK!

I still have the back-up bodywork from one of Paul Newmans 935's. It is the same front end as yours but the rear quarters are the first box style . I was going to put this body on my twin turbo 930S but decided to go for the street trim with modifications. During this I was informed A.I.R. still sells the wing and now GT Racing is offering the wing as well. I agree with VZ935 with the late style wing being on a early 935 body. Don't get me wrong awesome project and I love it, but the wing is still available.

I believe GJF is correct . If what you really want is a 934 1/2 or 935 wing I believe AIR still makes them . You should give John at AIR a call. I do have an original 935 one but it is a complete set with factory bodywork so I would hate to split it up.

WOW, I scoured the GT Racing pdf several times, this must be a new addition.
The one AIR sells at closer inspection is one of their own design and execution. Not to mention if it fits like the rest of the body panels I'll be in for another nightmare. I'm going to pick up the 935 wing from GT asap...this just made my Christmas bright! Thanks guys! |
Hey Reaper,
On your project, if your used factory rear hubs are in fact 935 the internal spline is a different size then what is used on a ( stock 930 ) won't work unless you have a custom flange made. You also might want to have your "alum" front hubs x-rayed or crack checked. That is why we have been making them for the last 15 years, many of the old used race pieces have been timed out and could cause you some problems. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. jim@torres.com Jim http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1196572849.jpg |
Reaper,
Something else, on your Factory used BBS 935 centers, the last used set I bought for my 935 after blasting them to have them crack checked 3 of the 4 were cracked and not ok to race on... Good show wheels. I just bought eight 935 BBS wheels hoping to get four that can be used. Jeff Alton will be making some nice centers. Jim |
Thanks for the heads up guys. The wheels I just got have been inspected and are good to go, they were back up wheels etc with only a couple sessions on them from a few years ago. This was a huge concern to me when purchasing the mag centers - so as long as I keep my eye on them and inspect regularly I'll be good.
Jim, sent you an email. |
