I don’t even know where to start, but basically everything is new or rebuilt…..i will let the pictures speak for themselves. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

That's one nice progress you made! Here's before and after pics.
![]() ![]() What is the brand and model of a tail/deck? Is the tail and deck fiberglass or just the tail (bolted to stock deck)? I've been looking into a stock looking 930 fiberglass tail/deck. ![]()

Hi Mike,
I am not sure of the make, Peter had it laying around the shop.....but I can say it is a fiberglass tail bolted to the stock metal deck lid. Kevin

Your car makes me fear the tear down of my car, lol. This is a classic "while you were in there" rabbit hole. It looks amazing. It is going to exceed your initial expectations tenfold. Can't wait to see some shots of it out in the wild and running.

Loved the thread. Was excited when you initially decided to keep it narrow as that is my intention. But I completely understand every change you made. Super happy you stayed away from the Subaru engine. I have bad experiences with Subaru. Really love the minimalist interior. I like how it shows off the car for what it is. Excellent work and great vision.
Keep us updated.

Very cool car, love the fenders and bumper. The grey paint looks great with the black wheels. Have you driven it yet?
