My 1970T Restomod Project- Tangerine Matching Numbers
I cannot resist a long hood. I sold my Albert Blau and immediately regretted it. Not only do I miss the car BUT the buyer was a total a**hole, that is well known to this group, and reneged on part of the deal. So, rather than try and buy the car back I found a 1970 Tangerine 911T with matching numbers and 44,000 miles (thank you Don Ahearn and Lewis Eig). The body is being done by Foreign Specialties in Manville NJ (Larry Comerford) and the motor, trans, suspension are being designed by Peter Dawe at Dawes Motorsports. Peter is also handling the build of the car.
Peter has started a 2.7liter with all of the goodies including twin plugs and PMO Efi. Should be fun. ![]() ![]()

Awesome! Looking forward to your progress! Hopefully our articles will come in handy as well (posted below). Don't know if it was mentioned, but what color are you going with? Assuming, the same blue?

Gonna be a fantastic build. I love Tangerine.

His knee is bothering him. But, of course, he won't sit down and not work!
