    I would build what you want and enjoy it. The older we get the more regrets we will have.
    Enjoy the ride. I lost my Dad when he was 52. Tomorrow is not promised.

    I am building my 1972 911T into a ST. The prior owner had turned it into a RS.

    I will have steel flares and fiberglass bumper available if you need them for your project.

    The Porsche factory made 911T's to be modified! Or at least this is what I tell everyone. A stock 911T is a boring adventure. Flare it and put in a big engine. Smiles for days! Or run 7R's with a big engine. Either way you need the big engine!! S brakes and a set up suspension also.

    Thank you all for the replies. I am going to go for it! The car has been hit in the rear in its past, at least from what I can tell in some body work so its not a perfect example anyway.

    66S I emailed you about your flares.

    Thanks.

    Jim B., that muffler on your car is very unique. Can't say I have seen another.

    Rick

    It's made by the company that produced Abarth and Anza Mufflers in Italy. I have never seen another one, either. Hayden at WEVO has one that is very similar and probably made by the same company. I haven't seen his, though. These are probably prototypes and were never produced for sale. Who in their right mind would put something like that on their precious 911?

    Regards

    Jim
