It seems like with the right choice of parts one could end up with a better performing machine than say taking a '72 T and adding a 3.6. Do you see what I'm getting at? It may be more economical and achieve a better result if one was to start with a 964 and backdate the body. Underneath is better/newer technology with the same basic body as a mid-year car or Carrera.
My thoughts,

One problem with that is that with all the better/newer technology comes alot of weight. When done it would perform well, but it wouldn't feel nearly as nimble and light as a early or SC/Carrera would.
