Driver seat is a Recaro Sport... I need to buy the passenger side to match.

I, too, am curious about the seats.

See post above... Recaro... model: Sport

Passenger side is a Boxster seat.... SmileWavy

Awesome car....but you forgot to put huge dollar sign decals on it!

I can't afford the decals... lol

Well.... holidays, work travel, and honey-do-list has kept me away...

I even had to redo all the measurements for the wheels...

A few photos to keep this alive while start working on it again...

Part of the reason to measure again is that I was not keeping the hub at the same height... remember Pythagoras' Theorem? Anyway, finally got the right numbers and sent them to Jeff Alton ( the folks that are building the wheels). Going with Kodiak racing wheels.

when are the wheels suppose to arrive?

Have you seen the movie "The Money Pit" with Tom Hanks?

In two weeks... :p

The wheels are coming, the wheels are coming!!! I got the UPS tracking number, they should be here this Friday!!

Thank you Jeff!!!

If you're not familiar with Cleco fasteners it's a great way to temporarily hold two pieces together when fitting your panels.

Clecos have been used for aircraft sheet metal fabrication for years. They're cheap and utilize a 1/8" hole with a lot of holding power. Larger diameters are available.

Planning on using 335/35ZR17 for the back and 275/40ZR17 for the front...

I will get those. Better than the self tap screws I am using now...

Very, very nice looking project.

sounds more and more like J. Alton is the man; his build turned out insane, and sounds like he helped u get an amazing looking set of wheels!

He did. :)

A few more... these things in the rear are wide! 14" from border to border.... I don't think 335/35-17 are going to do the trick...
