Im doing everything down to every nut and bolt, i did all the wiring, welding, painting, upholstery, engine, etc the whole nine yards i started in 2011 i think, im still working on her today :( Cos its taking me so long i bought another 911 a Carrera 996 for my daily driver until my mistress is finished.. Cant wait :):) Was a CAB Conversion, i took it upon myself to put her back to how she left the factory or as close as i could with my limited experience, (no experience) But you have to start somewhere and with a lot of postings here i started. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1471722545.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1471722627.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1471724439.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1471724758.jpg |
