HaHa I plan on bringing it in when it's finished Maybe ask them to do a coolant flush on a 83 911 or maybe complaining about a suspension clunk and get them to put it on the lift.

Look forward to seeing the continued evolution of the car.
I wish!

Very creative solutions and craftsmanship at play here.

Good luck in bringing it to a good conclusion .
You got this!

Cheers Richard
Thanks! I wish I had took more time planning out the build for the 70E and came to the same conclusion to build it the same way I am building the 83 911. I probably would have finished it by now that said it's been a learning experience.

I plan on keeping it a 83 911. There are no inspections of any kind in indiana and I really don't like the idea of swapping the vin from the 70E. With that said at this point with the modifications it's not like trying to pass it off as a 70 911 would help it in value.

You may have been and in a way you were right to as I did end up giving up on the rust bucket.

Thanks that is the plan it will be backdated and it will be a coupe. It will be something like a 73 RSR on steroids X10.
