"over the top"? I don't know about that...but it certainly is a damn nice looking ride. What part of Texas are you at?

Often people restore a car to near perfection but never get this detail right.

thank you all for your kind words on this project . Build time was about a 14 months The 1969 912 was the donor.Wanted light weight Wanted a hotrod porsche built to my specs not someone elses mess, Live in Dallas area. Ill get some pics of the interior up soon engine bay just as nice as outside. Lots of reading and research went into the build, Didnt want to go to events and be the 6th silver or red porsche there Bla..Bla...Bla.. Car was painted Silver Pine Mica which is a Toyota color. Wheels are a custom offset and are 7 in front and 7 1/2 in rear.
