Love the color and the wheels/tires. What's the plan for the build? Stock?

[IMR-Merlin]

Wurth makes the best posters.

[jwasbury]

Tires looks like Hoosiers...wheels are not stock either.

Street/Track build?

[Jimmy18E]

Fuch 15x8 up front and 15x9 in the rear, yup, Hoosiers all around..... Motor is done, CIS, but a full on build from custom crank on up with a short geared tranny, should scoot.

Posted this last mont, but heres the motor.......

Very nice build, is that the original color?

[S1000RR]

15 inchers look great!

[puddy]

Wow, love that color and rim combo! Are you going with factory look with original bumpers etc?

[Jimmy18E]

The car was originally Silver, the COA only had 1) Blaupunkt Radio Bamburg 2) Traffic Guide for Germany3) Turbo designation in Black 4) Pirelli tires as options.
The car is a no sunroof, single side mirror, no AC car. I guess an LSD was standard, when the tranny was broken down it had one or the COA did not list it.

I kept all the original parts. I have the factory bumpers and rockers which were painted but will be bubble wrapped and stored. I am going with smooth bumper blades and no rockers.

I have heard go stock, go original, I have done that before with another 77, bored me and it went down the road. I am going with what I think a 3.0 turbo would look like if hot rodded in the late 70's. It will have smooth bumpers, no fog lights, no rockers, 15 inch Fuchs, Lollipop seats, light weight theme. Black wheels with black Porsche script down the sides. Motor will make 400 and a tad at the wheels.
