What ever happened to that Weissach limited run of new RUF 17" wheels? I emailed Weissach and expressed interest in Dec '04, and then in Jan, they emailed me for a deposit, despite the fact that the wheels weren't made yet. I backed out. Anyone know the outcome?

Mikael--you car looks nice!! What's the story on it? 964 bumpers on a '76 body? What type of rear flares (Carrera?)? I love the look of the 10" rears (deep lips), too bad they rub.

OK, the Rufs look great but is there something else that makes them better than BBS, HRE's or some of the other light weight rims?

Mike: It's a '76 Carrera, which was made into a Ruf SCR in the late 80's by Ruf in Germany. In the mid 90's it got the 964 bumpers and side sills from German tuner Folger. It has Carrera flares, but I will soon replace the rear wings with OEM 964 rear wings because of rust...

Hey Eric, thanks for the compliments.

Yeah she's getting there... slowly!

That pic was when i was running just a pair of front seats and nothing else. I've got a full '964 RS' style carpet set in there now...




Sorry to hi-jack the thread guys.

Jon.
