I've seen worse.

It isn't that bad, not into the color. What don't you like?

equality72521 · 02-25-2007, 07:55 PM

Not feeling the red steering wheel but the rest isn't too bad.

Odd mix of SWB hood, Ruf style bumpers, 3.3 turbo tail, 964 mirrors, resprayed linen colored interior, chrome RD wheels. A lot of different time periods mixed together.

TI agree with you that the exterior paint work and color look good.

Here's some of the things I don't like:

The disturbing, jolting, and mismatched mix of old and new.
The obviously spraypainted interior.
The wood steering wheel.
The PepBoys Boy Racer pedals.
The blinged out wheels.
The chromed intake slats.
The color.
The fact that it's a '72, but the cool oil filler door is gone.

Other than that, it's not bad.

How about the fact that the fender lips aren't rolled and you can see why you roll the lips when putting bigger tires on it. What a waste of a 72, it would have looked so much better as a RS or RSR

That's sad, I justhope it was made from a rusted or wrecked car.

Leland Pate · 02-26-2007, 04:44 AM

It was going good... until I scrolled down.

I like Foreign Coach Works, they are a "broker" and that's where I found my Targa. Most of the cars they have a really cool...that is an exception. Yuk.

Puke.

What a waste of a perfectly nice 911.

Yeah, the spray painted dash is horrible. I'm not big on chrome wheels, and the chrome slats aren't doing it for me. If it had the original dash/pedals without the white gauge faces and better wheels and was just a weird widebodied early car it would probably be OK.

The color is good, I can live with the body, and could probably even live with the slant nose style rear intakes.

How much would it cost to make it stop sucking?

How come Porsches just don't typically stand up well to customization?

I want to like it, I like some things about it..................it's like fake boobs, fake hair, bad makeup on an otherwise hot old gal............very sad.

Not a MILF.

Beautiful color...that's it...!

Neat car minus the interior, chrome wheels, rear reflector and whale tail. Nice blend of new and old.

Very good analogy--I've never been able to put my finger on why I can't stand tarted up Porsches--especially wheels.
