New 911 Pics
 
You guys got on me about the 911 needing lowering last July when I bought her... so, I got around to lowering it a few months ago and just yesterday shot these new and improved pics.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1272578436.jpg

She looks right to me.

Good job.

onlycafe 04-29-2010 03:50 PM

looking very good.
now you should point the bottoms of the porsche crests on your wheels to the tire valves. (for the deadly serious concours guys.)

david914 04-29-2010 04:08 PM

Nice! Zinc Metallic?

Zeke 04-29-2010 05:54 PM

This is in OT??

Nice car. Question: If you don't use a front license plate, why the one you have?

Oh Haha 04-29-2010 07:08 PM

Looks great!!!
What size front wheel/tire combo is that?

They were pointed downward (correctly) when it went to the shop for lowering... it came back like this.... I plan to correct it.

Posted in OT probably due to lack of sleep.
The front plate was on the car when I bought it and I sort of like it.

She is sort of "hippy."

UconnTim97 04-30-2010 06:18 PM

Looks great!

Looking_for_911 04-30-2010 08:07 PM

Thanks for the comments on the car..... I appreciate you guys. My former fiance and girlfriend of 4-years said today that we "need to spend some time apart."
I think a Facebook rat has invaded my happy home based on the comments I have read between her and this so-called "friend."
At least the car still needs me.

Woah, sorry to hear that.

The ride height looks great. Forget about which way the crests are pointed... that kind of obsessiveness is just wrong.

JavaBrewer 04-30-2010 11:24 PM

Very nice 911. Take a road trip and enjoy yourself.

Sapporo Guy 05-01-2010 02:46 AM

lolo, thread needs to be moved due to no butt or provocative pictures?

ed decker 05-01-2010 02:50 PM

Now that I am Free at Last I will resume my passion of creating art involving the above mentioned topics...

That was something else I gave up for her... my art.

It's enough to kill a man.

Did you chuck it by the side of the road?

This is my favorite body style of 911...any chance you putting a picnic table wing on it? I think they look about 10,000x cooler with the wing.

If i was going to buy a 911, it would be a turbo from your 911's era.

Looking_for_911 05-02-2010 05:41 PM

Thanks, Sniper!
I have toyed with the idea of "winging" the rear end.... don't know which way I'll go.

Looking_for_911 05-02-2010 05:42 PM

I knew someone would ask that!
Thanks, but no. That ain't mine.

Oh Haha 05-02-2010 05:47 PM

Your car looks good without a whale tail.
IMO, a ducktail would look great, though.

m21sniper 05-02-2010 08:30 PM

See, now the ducktails i don't really care for. But then, it is not my car. :D

Looking_for_911 05-02-2010 10:07 PM

I have seriously considered the duck tail... but I keep coming back to the clean look of the rear end... so, I'll probably do nothing and end up selling it!

nice car, and sorry for the breakup with the "special lady friend". sucks. mine did the exact same thing to me..then we got married. stay alert friend. stick and move. i was planting a garden, and washing her car this weekend. then we talked about our feelings, organized the garage, we thru out my clothing that she doesnt like, and worked out a budget....STAY ALERT!

tcar 05-03-2010 04:50 PM

NO WING!


It's perfect.

Tishabet 05-03-2010 05:22 PM

At the risk of being laughed off this thread... what year is that 911? Beautiful!

tabs 05-03-2010 05:30 PM

There is something about those dam 911's

MT930 05-03-2010 05:31 PM

Very nice car good ride height. I'm a sucker for silver 911's

Hold on a tail of any type, narrow bodied cars look unnatural with turbo tails.

It looks great the way it is. Less is sometimes more.

ramonesfreak 05-03-2010 05:44 PM

no wing.
looks perfect, just like mine !;);)
