Project '72 update #10!
Well, i finally got to drive the project today for the first time out on the open road. ( of course i went to the curvy-est road near here ;) ) It felt really nice considering as some of you know, after i put it together a few weeks back i had no 4th gear so everything had to come back out and trans opened up and fixed. So today i got to stretch it out. WOW! that felt SWEET!
I also scored a complete 996TT brake setup, so that will go on this week. Here are a few photos from today.. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1116710576.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1116710596.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1116710618.jpg |

|
The Viper is ready to strike!

beautiful! the world needs more viper green 911s!
what kind of muffler are you running (sorry haven't been keeping up with the updates)? |
Rattlesnake.....
Your RSR is an inspiration for me to get mine finished ASAP. Keep us posted on your progress and pleasure!! |
Very nice
|
WOW.....What a stunner!
|
Very, very nice indeed. Love the hood, who made it?
|
I think you and Tom are going to have close to some of the best looking early cars on this board! Absolute knockout!
|
Before anyone says otherwise. Looks great without the Fuchs!
|
just totally awesome!!!
|
Congratulations!! That car looks awesome!!!
|
Wow!
That'd be an intimidating sight in some Georgia commuter's rear view mirror. ;) |
Stunning vehicle !
regards, Steve |
damn....that car could get more looks at an R Gruppe event than an Audi wagon! Awesome looking car, love the hood ducting and wheels.
|
YEAHHHH BABY!!!
If you guys have an East Coast get together you need to take a photo of your Viper Green and Toms' Signal Orange side by side. |
Beautiful!
|
Nice work. Great looking car!
|
Incredible looking car - job well done!
|
Very Nice!!!!
|
No officer.....really it was some other green beast with Carrera written on the side!!!! I have been out here driving the speed limit minding my own business...really!
|
Wicked...i love it.
|
Thanks for the compliments guys!!
Its actually Gelb Green. Its got more blue than Viper Green, so it appears to be more of a 'creamy green'. (almost the exact color of a green M&M or a Kawasaki) ruf- i used a Magnaflow muffler. rjay- i did the hood myself, with the help and planning of my body guy. (he did his first, and i copied it!) mark-74 - funny you mention that cop thing, that exact thought passed through my mind as i was ripping through a winding mountain road close to home. Of course the work is never done. I still have to put in the belts, fire system, sill plates,. etc.! |
Great looking car, I love the little details you added to make a good vehicle great. Can you give some more details on the muffler setup? Like how is it mounted (muffler straps?) so that its out of the way of the RSR bumper and how the tips are setup. Thanks.
|
Christ, that looks like what Arnold would do to a 72. That thing is juiced! Very nice.....
|
Watch out, Congress may call you in to testify about steroid use for race cars! Dude incredible job!
|
I like the muffler.....What is that?
|
I just like it
Michael |
That's gotta be the sweetest long hood I've ever seen! Now I want to start all over on mine...dammit!
|
Fabulous. Although the front spoiler is very functional it looks a little too modern for the rest of the car. Perhaps you could quick attach it for track events? A real stunner either way.
|
Damn.
...and by that I mean... Damn! |
Abso-funking-lutely im-funking-pressive!

"There's a new sheriff in town. Now be cool"
The ultimate blend of color, aggression, tires/wheels, and power. My wife would hate it. |
