Thanks for saving this 964...Curious if that impact set off the airbags?

yes it did... I'm going back with a passenger bag, but i have a Momo steering wheel, so no bag on my side..

Nice project! Cup Cars are a fun "spec."

Subscribed.

i am surprised at how many people are telling me to leave it white!

One of my fave 964s, actually 911s of all time.

+1 on the white - this is THE cup car color to me.

hhmmmm, i was leaning towards the new GT3 orange...

with this much work going into the car, why not throw out those ugly bumpers and put on some FG 959 ones?

Gary Emory has a nice set a' hangin' in his barn...

That or yellow. You NEVER see a yellow 964.

lol, my boss has a yellow one...! and I actually like the bumpers!

ok, i had pretty much decided on Orange until all you White lovers chimed in. My wheels are black Cup 1s and I do have the black carerra script, so it would almost exactly like the one in the picture below.. So, which is it going to be? Opinions?? I worry that Orange wouldn't resell as easy, but flashy colors do seem to sell better at times..

anyway:

Convert the air bag set up to the cup car style without bags.

That Orange does look good....Just to throw it out there have you seen the Strawberry hot rod that TRE is building for a customer....very nice.

I am not a fan of the retro colors on the more modern looking cars generally but that orange looks good....it is strong with the black accents and will only appeal to a certain segment.

I saw a grey/blue 67 on here the other day that was amazing..that is kind of a crossover color....Still the white with the cup car theme is very nice...sorry just rambling.

Go white....it's a perfect background....then change the scripts to match the season or the girlfriend's nails....

Mint Green???

Well, color is a very subjective thing. I really like Signal and Continental Orange, but if you are going for the Cup car look, GP White is hard to beat. Especially since that is your car's original color. As you know, a color change often adversely affects resale value.

If it was a 'non-racy' color now, I'd probably go for one of the oranges. They do look good.

Here's my ex-964 RSA in GP White. Shoulda kept this one!
