Nice stance. I think my car is too low. I'd like it to look like yours (in more ways than one )

Ron,

Congratulations. My 1980 SC has all the same rust issues that yours had. In fact it was just after viewing your old post that I found the rust in my door jams and decided to say forget this, and began to part it out. I don't know the first thing about welding and mine was hit from behind which helped to seal the deal.

I know how much work it took to get all that done. And how frustrating the first dozen times the screw driver goes throgh the car can be. I hope the first drive made it all worth the trouble. Congratulations and enjoy the car for a long long time.

Rich

P.S. you are missing a bracket on the [URL] in the beginning of your post.

Nice work Ron, the car looks great! Now we will have to see who has the faster 1980 ROW 911SC.

Thanks Rich, a post like yours is greatly appreciated!
Sorry to hear about your car.

John, I'll let you take it for a blast on Sunday and you can be the judge. That way I won't have to pay the speeding ticket
