Goldmember · 05-29-2012, 06:17 PM

I never thought I would fall in love with such an old, slow Porsche.. But after test driving this "beat" '80 SC. I had to have it......This is my 3rd P Car... And absolutely my favorite.

The car has 103K on it, needs alot. But I plan on resto-modding the hell outta this thing.

Let me know what you guys think!

Nice color. Looks close to mine. Any info on paint color code or history?

Welcome! Nice color. I would lower it too, but otherwise leave it (well maybe fix the front valence).

Enjoy!

Alright gents. It's been a long road but the build is coming together.

3.8L RS spec Varioram motor on the shelf.
G50 with Guard LSD
964 Floor welded in.
930 Floaters hung.
Sun roof deleted ( everything deleted).
Just gotta start putting her back together.

I'm lucky to have all the tech support I do.

Is the hood seam an easy adjustment?
What about that lower passenger quarter panel seam?

Yeah. Body work isn't totally dialed in. Once it's running I'm sure we'll have more than a few things that need correction.
