nice ride
I'm lucky that I have a few sets of correct wheels. I know the decal that you are talking about, and you are right, it is a great look, but this car being the only one, I'm not going to mod it (it already has chip & exhaust, but I have the stock parts too
) Here is what it came with..

I'm amazed at how many people seem to hack up 951s at all. There were a relativley few of them in total. 25K world wide and only roughly 14K in the US. Yet people act like there are a billion of them around and can part them, crash them etc with no reguard.
To put this in perspective Ford made over 500,000 1965 Mustangs alone. GM makes over 1,000,000 pick up trucks EVERY year.

Thanks, being the only one, makes it worth keeping all the stock bits. I just need to figure out if I' going to use my satin of polish Club Sport wheels on it..

You said you were going to put the OEM wheels on back on. What are you doing with the ones that are on there now? I have an 88 turbo RED with 58,000 miles on it. I'd like to update/change the original phone dial wheels to something else.

Would you believe 153K
I may keep them for street use, as I'm going to have my factory wheels restored to brand new.. If you are wanting some wheels, I do have these for sale.
A set of 7&8X16 968 rims.
And
I have a set of 8&10X17 ATP wheels off a 964.

Major difference is S spec: Bigger turbo, adjustable koni suspension, forged wheels (16x7fr-16x9rr), trans cooler, body is seam welded for added strength, LSD, & bigger front brakes from the 928 S4, I think thats about it!
