Thanks Andy! Fuel lines start to appear back on page 6. Too painful to revisit... sorta. I made all the hardlines and Len made the needed flex lines. The entire system is new from tank to engine and back to tank. Of course, "new" is a realtive term considering the timespan of this project .

Completed idea (but NOT a completed car)...

All the details together for the first time! Plenty left on the to-do list (and some stuff I may not even know about yet ), but here it is:













Time to go put in another day's work on it! Have a good one folks...

Beautiful build R_Builder , especially with that exterior color and the seats (excellent combo). Let's be honest, I don't think that we'll ever get tired of seeing 911R clone build...I'm sure that you're still going to be adding the final touches and details, so I wanted to let you know that we have a newly revamped Accessories section. I'm sure you'll find a lot of good stuff in there for this and future builds. Keep those photos coming too!

Thanks for the kind words everyone !

Regarding "the look", the pictures do not show that the paint ended up on the ivory side of light ivory... more yellowy than I was expecting. But it is what it is and after 2 years it has grown on me. I only mention it because if it had been more on the white side, the car would be screaming for some medium gray decals to tie in with the Fuchs...
