Work in progress pics - let see em!
 
Due to bad weather and work commitments me old 944's not seeing much movement. Lets see your work in progress pics to give me some inspiration to get it back on the road again!
(ps docsafi's pics gave me an initial kick!) ;-)

About how it currently looks (still need to get rid of the rest of the blue lines: (Intercooler pipes are at the powdercoater being coated white).

How the engine looked with the spray painted white pipes and before vacuum lines were swapped out and rail/injectors were painted.

My 944 was involved in a headon collision in November :-(

I was not the driver.

Here's what it looked like one day after the crash:

This is it a couple of weeks ago, with the wings recently removed:

And here's the most recent picture of it:

So for those of you wondering what a 944 looks like with the front cut off, see above :~)

strath44 01-18-2005 02:19 PM

whats the plan Jon are you rebuilding, S2 front??

I notice you have your alternator down low from the factory. Is that bracket the same as the one with an A/C compressor there? I want to move my alternator lower for a lower CG (not to mention it cleans out the engine bay some cuse my filter is rubbing on the top of the alternator).

I wish I had some work in progress pics to share, perhaps of my 951 in a few weeks?... Until then, here's the pics of my old work in progress.

drfatz, You're car is beautiful. I love to see someone who will make there car stop and turn just as good if not better than it accelerates. The rims look nice and overall I am very pleased with your car. Keep up the good work....
