Alvin - Bro you gots ***** the car is P E R F E C T...mine finally hit the road after 2 years and is going back for all kinds of stuff as I got impatient. This is THE build for the aircooled Porsches...you have my full respect and attention.

Those pipes are sex...can't wait to see it done, but at the same time, can't wait to see more details of it coming together! Keep the faith brother!

Thanks for the compliments guys. I know by Oct it will almost be 2 years since I left my car at Scargo . So far progress has been good for the last couple of months. There was a lot of improvements done from the original built and the motor has to be pulled back out. Now its back in the car All electricals are done . Tranny and LSD has been refreshed and regeared and bigger brakes to stop the beast. I will also be using Dymag 19" CF wheels for additional weight reduction as well.













Also a custom rear seat delete with 2 subs.

This build has been so much fun to keep up with. It must be hell to be without this car for this long. Glad to see you are doing everything right, regardless of cost.
