Ciao Matteo,

if you dont mind me asking...quanto costo è la ricostruzione del motore?

grazie,

Gotta be one of the best, if not the best car done to date on Pelican. Can't wait to see it finished up. Hate to see it leave the states but it'll be a star no matter where it resides.

FYI - Cyntex Performance is no longer in biz, how ever Paul Schwarz is still in the area.

you mean Europe... is land of 'big brother' and we seem soon to follow... ya gotta wonder when the 'car guys' will form a lobby in DC.

Great britain is by far the worst.
They have cctv and speedcamera's on allmost every road and in every corner.
Good for catching terrorists though.

[mjshira]

good point - back to the thread - when we gonna see some more shots of this beast!?!?

[k9handler]

yeah...more pics! I don't have an issue with speed cameras, they are for a reason and if ya do the crime....pay the fine! =o)
Take it to the track, or open sections of unrestricted autobahn.

Just saw "Children of Men". Creepy and not too far from what we have now.

Back to the thread. Nice project.

Soooooooo...

More stuff must have been plugged together by now.

Anxious to see how things are going.

[eimkeith]

would you like pictures of the new dash?

BTW, I'm going to post pictures of the DIFFERENCES in the early and late 930 trailing arms - there were significant changes from the pre-930 caliper ones to the ones we all know and love.

Matteo's arms are early units - they are at the machinist now getting the 3.5ish" brake tabs on the rear of the arm faced and drilled for caliper mounting.

As a side note, if 930 arms could be reproduced in steel for less than 1500.00 each, would there be market interest in that?

I did not know there was a difference, what is the diff????

Time for an update...
Rear suspension nearly done....

[911 in SC]

NICE!!! I personally like the fuchs, especially with the color of the car and the finish on the wheels! The widths don't hurt any either...

Simply beautiful. I can't wait to see another update now...

Thanks Matteo. You're an inspiration to us all.

Are you mounting the remote shock reservoirs there just to lower the CG?

No rear brake calipers is a great weight savings measure! You're the man.

All sarcasm aside, your people are doing beautiful work.

@Brother

Hey Paul...those don't look like they are mounted yet. Just dangling there. I'm sure they'll be zip tied somewhere.
