Matteo, I would be game for that. I think it would be a great show and tell for an NA build and a Turbo build. Do you think it will be ready by then?

The car will be ready all right. It really depends on the moving to England plans....

Thumbs up

Hi Matteo,

Those last photos are making my mouth water! I love those curves over the arches. You mentioned some pages back that you had blanked out the switch holes on the painted dashboard bit (which looks superb by the way!). Where are relocating to the switches to?

When you do get over here to the UK there is a growing Rennlist presence (we manage meets every couple of months in the London/south area), Pistonheads have got a great monthly breakfast meet at a famous 50's biker cafe (Ace Cafe) and there is a PCGB/everyone else meet at the same venue one evening per month plus the PCGB meets (though some of these can be a bit on-inclusive).

Cheers,

David

Another suggestion for your car, the LASER PRO PARK! OOOOH the constabulary will never know what hit them.

This is the only bummer from all I've been reading.....

Top notch 911 build project from the ground-up completed in North America ---- but never sees the pavement here, and is subsequently shipped out of the U.S. ......

You've got a lot of friends here - who I'm sure would be glad to look after it - keep it dry - wash and wax, etc.

Just one 'possible' scenario - that would (if desired), keep the car out of the rain and drizzle of UK.

I have been to the shop today.... Basically the car is done...

Seats are in, doors are mounted, door panels are on, carpets are in...

To do: brake bias adjuster on the dash, mirrors, mount the oil cooler+fan, H4 headlights.

The car will go to the bodyshop again on wednesday to get 2 clearcoats and buff treatment.. I want it councourse ready.

Then we'll just wait for the engine to show up.

I have some pics and will try to upload them tonight...

What seats are those? The leather covered recaro pole positions? Looks pretty sweet...

I actually did

It was the 1st time in 14 months... I held the steereing wheel and like an idiot I turned it left and right with a big grin on my face.

The seats (leather colored Recaro Pole Position) are soooo confortable.

I think it was nice (even if a little over the top) to have the back painted in the same ext color...

With the lowered rails and no sunroof I have tons of room for a helmet so we decided to put sliders in (so that my lovely understanding wife all my friends will have a chance to drive it).
