Carrera brakes and suspension. 930 rack, new dash, RS America seats, 16x6 wheel enhancement fuchs in the front and 16x7 in the rear. updated master cyl. dash work, recently replaced, no carpet yet but its coming along custom decklid script 3.2 engine she is dirty, I'll post some after the spring wash I didnt have the camber right when I through the 16x7's on and went sking last winter, thanks to Taso and www.rpmracinginc.com this is no longer a problem carrera fuel tank side view

ah yeah, about those pics :-) I admit, I also have a new camera which I clearly need to master, but you get the idea I hope.

thanks Clint, I got that badge off ebay last year and I like it a lot. Sorry about the pics, I am working on getting this camera figured out. I'll post some new ones in a bit.

That's nice, but 640x480 those pictures, with a less aggressive compression setting, okay?

side shot
dash engine, yes that is a cool collar, let the jokes begin but I run because I bought it master cyl. last shot of the evening and ah well it shows. but you can see that a set of 911R rear lights are in the works thanks to TRE. These are great quality units and I want to thank Dave for taking the time to make them right. The PO really sunk some labor into the car. She also has the Carrera fuel tank ![]() decklid

The white RS at BR I'd bet belongs to the infamous George Patterson, who is a rare prototype not fit for mass production. The white one in Curt's pic is Don's car (fellow Pelican head).

thanks John, I knew I could count on you to chime in! :-) Yeah, I'll bring it to the next meet. I think that April is bad with Hershey and Rennsport so maybe May?
Thanks Jack, I can't wait to get the new taillights on (from TRE) and to then get the carpet installed next month. After that it'll be time to safe up for that 993 & 8:31 915 swap. The car would not have come together without the help of the people on this board. thanks to all you guys. James
