964 motorized spoiler on a 75?
Anyone have any info on the fitting of the motorized 964 style spoiler on an early model 911 (1975). Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks |

I'd love to do that conversion on my '85 Carrera....but don't want to lose the air conditioning... Is it possible to do the project & still leave the condenser intact? The rear condenser is currently just under the air intake grille on my rear deck. Anyone out there done it? What do they do with the condenser on the 964's?
regards, jlex.

you can buy a underbelly A/C condenser or the Griffith's rear fender condenser

Somebody has got to aftermarket that immediately - that is too cool and much better looking than those windmill blades you see on some decklids. Post pics and cost info - I'm assuming one would have to buy one from a recycler (lucky) or buy one new from Porsche (yikes!)
I wonder if it would be terribly difficult to modify the existing grille assembly to have a hinged or articulating mechanism driven by simple servo-motors. I've seen great examples of bootstrap engineering from other Pelicans, maybe someone has tried this? Oh, and I'll apologize in advance for the whale-tail dig, I know some are a little...sensitive on this issue. Joe

What would be the latest year that would fit a 76 body style? I know that the hinges would need to be modified, but would the basic shape fit the car?

Thanks for the link to Matt-Man's decklid thread! This is exactly what I was looking for. I deeply suspected that a Pelican had done it before and would be willing to help.
Thanks again, this is the most remarkable Internet community I've come across!
