Planning the next evolution - need 934 Pics & Ideas

I was thinking about the next evolution of my '78 911sc. Originally, I thought I would go for a IROC look but, ... (I can't believe I'm going to type this) ... they seem to be too common. So, I've shifted my thoughts to a 934 look. I like the body style of Jagermeister car but am open to other 934 iterations.

Most of the pictures I can find are limited to front quarter or side views. I'm looking for shots from all angles inside and out. Also interested in pictures showing various liveries and color combinations. My car is currently Talbot Yellow so sticking with a yellow base would save time and money.

Wheel choice is going to be a big deal, too. I want to be able to use wheels similar in width to the original cars but need good tire choice, too.

I don't imagine I'll pull the trigger on the project this year. I learned from my last effort that I want to plan every detail and have the parts and any needed labor sourced, as well as having the budget fully funded before starting.

This is where the vision is so far:
  • Use will be street and track
  • Similar to the Jagermeister body style
  • 3.6L engine swap
  • Race livery inspired paint/graphics on a Talbot Yellow base
  • Keep the RS carpeted interior I currently have
  • Change out seats to fixed back race type seats
  • Use the bolt in roll bar I have or add a simple cage

Here she is just before I finished the last effort:



Going for something like this:



Looking for inspirational thoughts, pictures and advice.

Don't have much to offer than; AWESOME IDEA..GOOD LUCK!

Those wide BBS wheels will be tough to find. I know where there is a set in Charlotte, but they would be expensive.

There is a recent 930 to 934 conversion in Jager livery that was auctioned in AZ.

Plenty of pictures available if you search.

Ok, starting to shop. I'll try to source used turbo width front and rear fenders. Any recommendations on where I should purchase the bolt-on 934 fender flares and front valance. There don't seem to be many providers out there. Right now, it looks like AIR.

Suggestions?
