Pre-74 RS look without chrome?
Hi! Does anyone have or know of any 911 pre-74 RS-type with black window frames etc.? I am considering this for backdating my 1978, but would like to see how one might look with no chrome. I am thinking it could be kinda cool, but also not, and nice to not have to take all the windows out etc. at a later stage if I change my mind.
Thanks  Car is Minerva Blue, considering keeping it or going for older original Blue Metallic: [IMG]  [/IMG]

Thanks for the link! However, they are mostly 74 or later style cars, and a few older ones but with chrome trim. I would like to see pre-74 longhood with black trim, which I have not been able to find pictures of, and my imagination can't really seem to be able to picture it either

Thanks guys! Definitely more classic with the chrome :-)
I am wondering if my car might have had chrome and that someone has painted them before I got the car. When rubbing them down with fine sand paper before I touched them up they where quite shiny, and others I see that have the anodized finish looks different, not totally black but you can still see that they're not painted. |
