The New REd
Thought this was pretty cool.... and it's red... It demonstrates the incredible value in what Bruce is doing, and a VERY similar build. They want in excess of $70K for this one. OOPS ~ it was too cheap at $70K and now it's SOLD.

some pieces installed back into car
GT3 Seats
We are getting the interior pieces back into the car so that they are not laying around the shop. Fitment will go on till next week and then doors, windows and everything comes out for Paint. Motor is being reinstalled by MZ Motorsports next week.
ACC Collision is doing an amazing job on this car! if you need work done in the future you are all welcome to come visit the shop and see the work they are doing on my car.
The next car they are doing is an 02 996 that will be transformed into a 997 GT3RS with all factory GT3RS parts. They are NOT using the conversion parts! These guys are serious business!!

Nope. I like the white. I don't want too much carbon on the inside (MAYBE add stereo surround). I don't really like the feel of the carbon shifter either it is too much of a square box for me instead of the one that is in there now.

Didn't know you could convert a 996 into a 997 anything. thought the front end had to be swapped completely seems to be a lot of funds to get a look alike GT3RS.
That White looks great on the interior. Back of the seats looks great. Can't wait to see the car when done.
I'm slowly creating a White Army that will follow then swallow all in it's path. Hehehehe
