alporsche, please don't get me wrong... a 71T, a 73T, i wouldn't have said a thing! They aren't rare. But just because some previous moron couldn't afford a 993, so he molested his 72, to me, is no excuse to further the charges.

Your right, i probably couldn't afford to buy your chassis and have it shipped to CA. But I personaly CAN bring that car back to OE status! And would if I had the chassis! It would take me about a year to save up for all the sheetmetal and materials, but thats it. I can do EVERYTHING myself. Welding, bodywork, painting, chassis streightening,etc... I have a few sources for late 60's/early 70's rusted out tub 911's with good/fixable bodys to donate to the 72. I did all the work to my 914-6GT replica, so theirs my resume.

swash, AWESOME ferrari!!!! Is that a millitary issue Hum-Vee?

Adam, a 914 with the STi and intercooling is easy! Since theres one turbo, i'd split the turbo charge in two, sending each tube to the fender wells in front of the rear wheels. THen duct the ambiant air just behind the rear doors to the coolers, and to the wheel wells (or else where). Then from the cooler you go back into the top of the engine compartment through the fire wall. If you want a diagram, i could figure something out.

if you want to save it...everything's for sale...

kidding...it's gonna be a bastard...it WILL be registered though, so someone can save it someday...

BIG...I don't cut them to do the "mutt" install, at least nothing reversible....and as the front pan is all rusted out...that's not like I'm cutting a good front pan.

f-car -chevy v-8

Hi Guys,Hey Kev the 288 conversion was on the car when I traded it for the 911,but you can get the body stuff from Berlinetta Motorcars in New York or N.J. the guys name is Doug Pirrone he does good work.The adaptor for the small block chevy is a one-off from Bob Norwood at Norwood Performance in Texas check them out on Google they do some killer stuff (1,500)H.P. Porsches,Ferraris,Customs,Twin-Turbos Evry-where.....I mostly made evrything else, pretty simple,if you need advice,pics,specs, no-problem....or maybe my son will take about 12 k or so (hes now becoming a dreaded tuner freak,he will learn quickly about rice grenades) Asphaltgambler... you shared the same pain of working on the f-cars, that blows, I feel your pain, whats cool is, I just removed, n, replaced ,with Current,Quality stuff... Needcash........ I believe you can get all the panels ,around 6 to 8 grand, except the correct . Speedline wheels are getting scarce, I had to sift through many ads, n spend $3500.00. just for the rims. F-cars blow.... P-cars GO ...........n Go...... N Go..........
