An Introduction
Sorry I have been posting on here for some months but have not formally introduced myself. I am Jerry Smith from Missouri and I originally aquired my 911 in 1982 as a stolen car that was recovered and resurrected by me and a close friend Ed in Hawaii. It took some 3 years to get the car drivable and has been a project car ever since.
This is where I got  This!  And is now looking like this  while it is getting makeover number 2 I always wanted a cabriolet and will eventually get the turbo motor back together with lots of modern upgrades. Thanks to all and Merry Christmas

Islandmanpa your thread on seat replacement gave me the idea for my new seats to replace those old recaro seats I had since 82. They are comfortable!
