I recently picked up a new project. A '71 911T that was unfortunately 'forward-dated' to a big bumper car and painted black from its original tangerine sometime in the 90's I believe.
The car does have a 2.2 but with Webers and it is not the original motor. Along the way it was also updated to a 915. Since it has a 915, I thought that the 3.2 I have kicking around from my '89 might be fun to stick in the car. Plan would be that the car eventually becomes some form of narrow bodied hotrod.
Intial plans are to return it to its correct long-hood status and colour and I am having some difficulty on decided whether to use fibreglass or steel parts for the hood and fenders. I can get a steel hood locally that needs a bit of work for about 1/2 the cost of a TRE fibreglass hood but a pair of new steel front fenders will be about double the cost of fibreglass. Any experience or opinions that people want to share would be greatly appreciated.
