Pictures of my 86 cab

I finally decided to figure out how to resize some pictures (not that hard after I figured it out).

So here are some of my 86 cab. The PO put the wheels on, I have nto really decided if I like them 100% or not, but with the new baby, these will be just fine for a while!

You gotta go with the fuchs... but it is a personal decision. I put my 911 on a diet... fuchs and fiberglass bumpers.

I love my 3.2 Cab!!!

Nope... not a real 964 wing. It's a fakey as seen here:
http://www.betterbodiesmotorsport.com/interiors/wings1/p10base.html

I got it because I didn't want just the flat decklid. I feel it give the rear end more dimension and an more interesting look... especially on an older 911.

Unfortunately, my top has seen better days.

Rsr808 - what size Fuchs do you have? Are they 9 & 7's or 9's and 8's? Very nice... What color? How many miles? Very cool!

Yep, bag those wheels and go with the Fuchs. As far as the bumpers, my personal taste says leave it original.

Wow - I guess the spacers on the rear make it look bigger. I just bought a set of 8 x 16 951 fronts and 9 x 16's for my cab - can't wait to get them and get them polished and mounted. Yours look awesome.

Looks great for 103K! Awesome

Cabs Rule!

Hello,

For me... it has gotta be a Cabriolet. Being a "Cali" enthusiast I must also enjoy the almost year round sun shine. Its time to show off your Cab!

By the way BSiple... I just put a set of original Fuchs on the Pelican Parts Classifieds. They would look great on your car if painted.


Cabs Rule!
