You should be aware that fitment will vary depending on supplier, and nothing is going to be a perfect straight bolt-up. That being said, mine fit very well with only minor tweaking required. I had just a little bit of total width difference L to R between the bumper and the car; maybe 1/2" total? I started bolting up in the middle and when I got to the left and right ends I was able to slightly flex the quarter panel out while pushing the FG bumper in. Then I clamped it down before drilling the mounting holes on the ends. Pretty much standard fitting methods. The end result was fine, just a TINY bit of an outward point where the two parts met.

Pretty much always some surprises when working with fiberglass parts, question is how big a surprise. As stated above fitment can vary by supplier.. but also from car to car dependent upon how its tweeked. I've worked on enough 911's to notice that fit and finish details can vary from car to car.. and I'm talking about NON-accident vehicles, one that's been tapped can be a whole different set of fitment issues.. or not. That being said.. it shouldn't be too bad.

One think you want to do when your parts arrive is to check for spider webbing or hairline cracks in the gel-coat. Hold the backside of the item up to the light and look for these.. you may want cut into that area and fill & finish before prime and paint as these will "suck down" the material and always be there under the painted finish. Its not difficult to do, and is not necessarily an issue with the manufacturer.. its more the nature of fiberglass parts, some more than others.

I been gone for a minute, but I always been around. Heres my baby now!

Need two rear reflectors for a RUF rear bumper, any leads?

bump for rear reflector leads

These are my favorite bumpers for these cars. I have the rear bumper, need the front. If anyone has one that they are not using, please pm me.

Hopefully this thread will continue.

Part # 930 633 101 01

Did you ever order the ones from TRE?

My Yellowbird CTR1 tribute project will be up for sale this week. Divorce is forcing the sale unfortunately.

The car has had many upgrades including extensive body work, chassis, bolt in cage, big brakes....

Some of the upgrades have been documented here on the forums.

It will be sold as a rolling chassis as the engine and transmission is not available.

I will list it tonight in the for sale forum with the full listing of what it has and what comes with it. Hopefully one of the members here will continue the build.

I know there is a what is it worth forum but I wonder with prices at the levels they are for the 930 cars what this list- thinks a BTR is worth these days- in good shape?

Hemmings has an '88 Ruf VIN BTR for $250,000 (OBO) if you're feeling generous.;)

thanks...

That's a shame. I "lost" a 964 the same way.

Your car has lots of potential but don't look back... Move on as best you can and keep looking after yourself. There is life after divorce and it can be very good.

Hi,

I'd please like to get your advice on a modification of the 85 litre tank to have a capacity of 110 litres like the tank optionally provided by Ruf for the CTR and BTR.

Since theresn't an awful lot of posts of myself in here, I'd like to introduce myself shortly: I live in Germany and own my 911 since about 20 years. Step by step, I've been converting it to look like a Ruf BTR and increased its engine power to be close to aspirated 300 bhp. I'll share any more detail upon request here :)

Now, would anyone of you please be able to help me with the 110 litre tank conversion? Got a spare "old" 85 tank that might be converted and looking for a Company that is willing to do it, please see before and after pictures enclosed. Thanks.
Cheers, Frank
