how do you feel about putting the nice original-style fenders back on?

also, let us know what car this is -- year, maybe a VIN, overall pic, type motor in it...

sorry i intended to continue a previous posting "long time sitting 911" and instead started a new post. supposedly this is a slant nose cabriolet that was constructed by an outfit in san diego, ca based on a 1977 911 with a 78 3.0 engine

The metal CIS box is probably aftermarket. The only one I've in real life was alloy.

Are your front wings all metal or fiberglass or a combination of both?
