Me thinks you should just post pictures of your ST. Period.

James,
By all means. there are many of us here that would greatly enjoy photographic details of you car(s). For myself, the interior details, front and rear lamps, engine compartment, and door panels are of particular interest... ![]()

Aw man! You've got two?????
![]() Care to share a brief summary of what they're each like behind the wheel? Could you compare the experience to driving the (marginally) more common 2.7 RSR? BTW: What are the numbers and histories of your cars?

James, Thanks for the offer to get some pictures up for my project. BTW, If you email me pictures I can post them on a web page for you. This way everyone can enjoy the view.
I think its very special that a member of the board has not one, but two rare examples of Porsche racing history. Thanks for joining us.

James, as someone who has an ST replica project in the near future I will appreciate any and as many pictures as possible.. the idea of an 911ST Rally look-alike has been on my mind since the mid-late 80's.
Jamie, let me know if you need any help with the pictures or with web space. Thanks in advance. Regards

Wow - sounds awesome. I too eagerly await photos.
Please take this next comment in jest ![]() "Sorry I dont have a camera i will have to wait for my friend to come round to post photos" You have two 911STs and don't have a digital camera! Why don't I feel more fulfilled (I have a digital camera).

Drool.
Let me guess. What you meant to say was you don't have a digital camera. You've just got a couple of old Leica's right? Bobby ![]() |
