Saturday Afternoon Pics. Blue Car w/ new 7's & 9's

jmz · jmz's Garage

just for kicks I thought I'd post a few pics of my labor of love ...or beast of burden ...depending on which day you catch me.

today was a kick, went for a little drive through some twisties. The car has much lighter steering w/ the 7's and 9's than it did w/ the 15x7s all the way around. 205's up front vs the 225's I guess.

What color is that? I like it.

Thanks it is Mexico Blue. Only offered as a standard color in 1974. It was an option some other years. It was re-introduced in '98 as Riviera Blue.

cool, keep us posted on the progress. I have several times thought of either IROC or Ruf bumpers and removing the rockers. I will be very interested to see how yours turns out.

Time to change my underwear...

I considered shaving the roof gutters too. Decided it would be either too much work or too much money should I have paid for the work. It really makes for a cleaner look though.

Devistating 911. Your car is yet another example of how "proper" a short hood 911 can look when it is done right. No doubt that thing is a blast to drive too. Well done!

Nice color nice car.

Here is mine. Orginally -74, but now with 3.2, big brakes and so on. Still under construction, but it has never been this close to first drive and I`m getting closer.
