I saw you did not modified the front of the chassis to improove the fitment of the oil cooler... do you think to have "enought space"?
I ask you because my mechanic is planning to mount a smaller oil cooler with respect to the original and he said me that is not necessary to modify the chassis... I'm a bit warried |
Giovanni,
I am not to worried about it mostly because 1. i'm not racing it and 2. most 911's in the PNW aren't even running oil coolers up front, it doesnt get hot enough here for a long period of time, also i wanted to get the car finished this year. In the future i may go back and remodify the front , but until then, we'll just see how it works. |
:)
so my mechanic is right thanks |
Updates???
|
none as of yet ...will keep you posted...
and your " secret project " ? |
Hay Toney....you are getting there!

Some updates of the slow progress, but progress none the less, and yes that is a GT3 RS muffler that will eventually be mated to the exhaust system.

Sorry it's been a long while since last updated, but car is finally out of the garage for the first time in years, and its on it's way to Fordahl's to get the remaing body parts on and aligned, all brake lines installed and tested, alignment, wheels balanced, ride height set and corner balanced. here are some pics til car comes home.

great...!! you have almost made it...interesting pics...did the ford in the driveway delay ~ prolong this project...?? if it did, I understand as that is a nice car as well...
Also, seeing the slightly unearthed blue tarp on the side of the dirt road looks like you "unearthed" or dug up your car since they are the same color blue...... do you have another car like that buried there as I will come & dig one up if you don't mind... :-) Can't wait till you fire that beast up...!! how long did the shop say they need the car for till she is returned...?? Carry on...thx for sharing... Bob |
Can't wait see the finished product.....
Fordahl's shop was one of the last stops my car made before being (almost) roadworthy. I'll be there soon to drop off some stuff. Hopefully your car will still be ther so I get an up-close look! |
Way to go Tony. It's been a long road and I'm glad to see you back at it again. Email me with your schedule regarding when your car will be back in the garage and I'll work my way over there.
Al PS: Fordahl's did a great job on my 77, many years ago...and on my current ride (Dan's ex). |
Glad to see this projects still alive. SmileWavy

very nice work, it will be amazing when finish :cool:

Love how this is turning out. Get one of the SEINE systems hood props. It will be lighter and slip out less often than the 2x4.
I love the color, especially. Doug |

yeah, the price is right on the 2x4! You could buy ten or fifteen for one of the Seine systems'

Thanks again :cool: |

for what it is worth, their gate shift kit works really well, too, if you don't spend the $ on WEVO. Doug |
Car looks so good. I get really excited when I see this thread bumped.

You could use a 964 smile up front. I can't offer any guidance on the rear.

Waiting for clutch and tranny to be finished... back in on the 5th of September...
https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...62196188_n.jpg Resealing 73 style 915 tranny... was leaking on the clutch, causing problems shifting... New tires 275/45r16.. Toyos... biggest I can fit/find. ARE your wheels shown above 17's? I can't imagine how they could be as wide if not. My powerplant is back in... http://www.74911rs.com/images/withmotor.png ... And not much luck harvesting oil spots! HA! Tom Amon rebuild, perfect re-install, no leaks, no fuss, just very fast. |
Nice build! :)

well done...I can't wait to hear a clip of when you fire it up & drive her...

Amazing!
The wheel wells are filled in nicely and perfectly. What is the trick to that? I seen some cars which don't look as perfect as yours. Thanks. |
