Skywalker001 Build - Got my new shoes

Looks awesome but I would lose the hatch.

I think the fastback keeps the proportions better and looks more serious and less kit car like. I get a lexan hatch instead and tint it out. Love the flares in the satin black!

Yeah Hotshoe - I thought about it ...... for a couple seconds, but I think the notchback look sets it apart. If you hadn't noticed, what doesn't look kit car'ish on it Thanks for the props on the paint - it was hard to make the choice after the investment in yellow I had made......but then after all of the cutting of the body, there wasn't much yellow left.

AH HAH! I knew it was gonna be something darkish! Looks great! At first I thought you had it in primer but no other pictures came. Its gonna look sweet when you get all the fixins on it. Did you clear it?

Dear God that's hot! Do want! Very nice work.

Need pics of the front.....

944-LT1, I am glad I didn't disappoint! Nothing like this for being in your face!! This is DuPont's Hot Hues Hot Rod Black (HRM-6400). It's a 2 part, single stage that doesn't need a clear coat. I am currently overseas (hence the rush), but when I get back, I'll add some accent stripes and test the 968 mirrors (mucho wiring to redo)

Porch - Thanks! I shudder to think what the cost would been had I farmed this work out. Don't even want to see another sheet of sandpaper as long as I live!

Dawgz - When I get back, I will get you those shots - thought I had some ....... rummaging around.....here's one that I have on cardomain. The holes on the hood are for the Aerocatch latches that I still have to install. Hood still needs to be aligned but it was good enough to load onto the trailer and get it home (and stop the meter on the paintbay usage fees. cha-chinggg!!)

Dawgz was curious about the front, so here are a couple shots

just wanted to give you a head ups, but if ur car goes missing, contact me ( i might have it)

just kidding!

Love it. As is creeps down the street, it spouts...."F!ck off"

@modenas - I think you'll have to take a number - I've heard that from several other people . Some of them, I really have to worry about!!

@Xschop - I'm hoping to get registered soon; we'll see what the general public reaction is.

Those fog lights are sick. great looking car man

pat, you might have to worry about another person running off with that car *this guy*.....I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE (actually i forgot...damnit!)

but seriously, the car looks awesome...really nice job so far, when do you think it will be on the road?

@Ender - Thanks ..... the foglights definitely made the car harder to paint. Could hardly mask the lenses because they were so tight in the wells.

@bluehellfire - Thanks for the compliment! I am going out of the area until the end of the month, but I am looking to get registered early next month. I plan on being on the road shortly after that!!

87-944S stopped by over the weekend and took some snaps -

Quite fitting that over the Memorial Day Weekend, the project got its GS Rank! Painted those with Gunmetal - now only if I could get a 948 Crest in that color

i say we put in 4 15" subs and a massive amp, flip stereo with bluetooth, gps and backing up camera. and 6 security detail guards and make it a show car! no one touchy!!!!!

How'd you know what I was planning on doing?? Definitely bluetooth!

where you located? after you are done come to arkansas and help out this college boy/ mechanic on the rest of the swap from one porsche to another. LOL

I'm in MD - right between Baltimore and DC. As I make the maiden voyage cross country, maybe I'll be able to stop by since Arkansas is in the flight path!

That would be sweet. I can't wait to have mine back up and runnning again, I want to take it cross country afterwards too.

Updated photos. Got widows, mirrors, and trim on.
