I love that look, without the graphics, even. Wow man!

What about silver center caps on the wheels, and are you doing a chrome early style mirror?

Looks beautiful however you slice it though......

Scott

Just wondering why you painted it with the doors on, the wings on and the rear screen in?

What about the visible door inners etc etc.

am i missing something?

Can I vote to keep it "graphics free"? ...or is that too plain? I just love the clean look. :)

Can not wait to see the Final Product......................

Nice work .

Nice work Don!

Here is a pic of the early lach panel we put in finished.
We cut out the 964 one. That way the steel hood would latch the right way.

Doc, just so you know, this thread caused me to go out and by a 92 C2 just to do this conversion.

Everything looks pretty straight forward but, I was wondering what you did below the rockers where all the lines and jack points hung down. Did you relocated those things or did you just black them out or something? Whatever you did, you can not see them anymore. hahaha

Thanks
Mike

Semi Flat Black spray can is the ticket! ;)

hahaha, that was what I was thinking.

Time to start collecting parts for this conversion. Too bad a 66 912 wont work as I am parting one out now that has all the parts I would need.

Mike

Doc, did you guys just use body filler in the sunken in areas on the rocker panels?

Mike

We welded in some peices of sheet metal in them, and then a little mud.

Don, may I ask what you guys did with the oil cooler and AC condenser to make room for the front turn signal buckets? I just got the front bumper off my car and there doesn't seem like there will be room for the buckets without relocating the oil cooler and AC condenser.

Thanks
Mike

I bought the C4 RS at Barrett Jackson this week
 

Porsche Doc, glad i found this thread. your white-blue car came across Thursday night at the auction in Scottsdale. i bought it from the guy in Atlanta. he had added a super charger. havnet driven it yet. Being delivered Friday to Seattle, WA. Looks like you did some really nice work to it.

Cool! What was the sales price?

Cool
 

Hey.... Congrats!
I saw it live on TV. Glad I was watching! :D It made me proud! ;)
I sent ya a Email with my contact info. Give me a shout... :)

Barrett Jackson purchase
 

I spoke to the owner and he was hoping for $70k and was bummed he drew the Thursday night slot. Wanted prime time. It was on Speed and I taped it. Paid $49k plus the 10% buyers premium. Having it shipped to Seattle by Park Place Ltd.
He added a super charger and blue seat belts. Or said he did. The guy on Speed had great things to say and lots of people were stopping by for pictures. I have to see about getting a copy of the 07 Excellence magazine. This thread was very cool to read.
Hope to connect soon.

edit: Porsche Doc-lively discussion, huh, that's great! Osufan- here is a thread I started about the sale of your car, feel free to post about it there...http://forums.pelicanparts.com/off-topic-discussions/653066-barrett-jackson-1990-porsche-rsr-tribute-coupe.html

There is only one way to "draw" a prime time slot at that auction and thats to pay for it

Great looking car. Tough choice between the red or blue they all look great.

Great thread.

Don. Congratulations on what looks like a fantastic work of art [apart from the mirrors ha!] Michael.

This is an old thread.... Car is well known and has changed hands several times, also sprouted a supercharger since it left Doc's

HEY DON !!! SmileWavy
Long time no speak .

that should read “here is the 73 rsr IAN is building “ …

By “building” I mean not really doing anything other than spending money I cannot afford , on overpriced parts that take up room in the garage meaning I cannot work on the car :rolleyes:

It’s a vicious circle :D

Hey man! SmileWavy
LoL... I figured by now you had it finished and been tearing up the track with it.

I would love to know where this car is now!
Last I heard it was in the Washington Oregon area.
