Porsche Crest first time pic post for comments please

Hello everybody,

A while ago I replaced (read: Had someone replace for me) the shocks and tires of my 1974 911 (non 's', US ROW).
Previous shocks were originals from 74 I think. Guessing by the difference in drivability they were...
Tires were 205/50 r15 and changed them for 205/60 r15
Before fotos found at: http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/pmpre/pm.cgi?login=Geronimo_'74&action=display&
Love to hear comments, advice, criticism.
Can someone please photoshop 16 inch Fuchs (same Colours) onto my baby, I would be very thankful.
Greetz,
Geronimo

I just hate how everyone seems to carry Fuchs wheels and I donīt since the idiot PO changed them for some crappy Azev.

Great looking car! What color is it?

The car looks a little high and the rear looks especially high. Maybe those new shocks haven't settled yet?

White lettered tires coming back into style? Seriously, it's a beauty.

Do these pics seem very dark or is it my monitor that needs a sledge hammer reset?

Put down that hammer, they are a little dark, but not that bad. Here are a couple lightened up a bit. Darker photos usually do make the paint look better.

Black dash, brown carpet, brown seats, not very darkish though, more like beige)
Will try to post pics of the interior tomorrow at work.
Please stop me if I'm hogging here, I don't know how to post and prevent this thread of going to the top of the list every time.
It is of course nice to get replies and to see that moves to top from time to time but I don't want to be the one that keeps on moving it first in the list.
Guess it'l happen again when I hit the submit button huh...
Sorry for that.

G
