I'll be following this. I occasionally consider going wide body, so this may be motivation I need.

The next question will be what wheels and tires to fill out those fenders?

You going for Fuchs 7x9s ? They are getting costly. Maybe replicas?

I wish but I will be reusing my 17" Fake Fuchs for now they are 8x9's :-) just using huge arse spacers, 1.00-1.25" Front and 2.00-2.25" Rears. Ordered some 1.00" and 2.00" to see how they fit and if I need to go wider :-)

I want the Bonoss Light Weight air cooled spacers, waiting for thm to confirm if they can make the G-Body 911 as the latest model they make is for 964's

Well, I decided to go Wide Body to finally match my Turbo Tail. I know I know, Back Assward.

Wish me Luck Fellas!

A little late to this party but good to see you back DRACO! Your're right "life and work has been crazy," along with the whole "Flurona." I know its a combination that has stalled me and a number of my projects!

Anyway, nice choice with the M491 conversion on the Targa. These are super rare as Both M491 and Turbo Targas produced in the smallest numbers of each breed.

Should be fun, carry on!

Hey Jim,

Are you planning to use the rear fender stone guards? If so, I have a pair I can donate to you. Not fishing for a sale here. Straight donation to you at no cost for your great DIY how-to contributions on the forum over the years.
