Looking to purchase a real nice original '70-'73 911 or a RS clone car. If I don't find something I like then the project will be building one myself.

Any thoughts on project (2)???

What does everyone have in mind?

Yeah, me too - - but I'm gonna replace my speakers with an M&K Muffler :D

Get Helga ready and drive to Key West, FL in March!

Jeff Higgins 02-16-2007 07:53 AM

Seriously though, my next big project is building a 3.0 liter based on an SC motor. Just got started on it. When done it will have JE 9.5:1 pistons in the stock Mahle nickasil cylinders, probably the Elgin or DC "Mod S" cams, SSI's, and most importantly, MFI. Parts are going out for inspection and renewall even as we speak.

This will be more than a springtime project. I'll be piecing it all together as budget allows until next winter, when it's going into my '72 T. I've got Wayne's engine rebuild book and all the time in the world, so I'll do all the assembly myself.

I need to track down a couple oil leaks and repaint a panel or two. Also need to come up with a set of door panels.

goat 02-16-2007 09:43 AM

Some cool projects some of you all got going.
Mine is not that exciting this year,
1. Replace dash not too sure what to get, leather or not.
2. New windshield
3. Time to adjust the valves in April
