really nicely put together project thread. cool to see it together all in one big lump.

Very nice build.
At first I thought it was a good idea to put the pictures all at once but now I just don't know You miss the kudos on each part of the journey. Each photo deserves its own form of congratulation.
Kinda makes me dizzy going back and forth finding neat stuff.......
Anyway, have some fun with a great looking car.

I just put one in a client's car. Can already tell its going to be interesting in traffic. But it'll TOTALLY be worth it.

As for the Toyos, I agree with you on the RA-1s. The R888s aren't even in the same universe. BUT, if they are primarily your street tire they will serve you well.

What tires have you found to work well that are not crazy expensive?

Johan, we replaced the shock tower (crossmember) with one from a later car so the angle is correct for the aluminum arms. It works well...

Thanks Aaron!

Yesterday I was in Sunny Florida driving a '72 911S. Today I am back in Chicago where we had some snow last night and it's supposed to be 16 degrees F overnight, with more snow on the way. I went back and read my own thread start to finish, since I can't actually drive the car yet this so-called "spring."

Had a great time hanging out with some Midwest early 911 enthusiasts at Road America for the HAWK vintage races last weekend, and meeting a whole lot more at the Saturday night street concours in front of Siebkens. Managed to add about 500 miles to the car - the most in a week so far - but bigger plans are forming. That's Scott Hansen in the photo, who raced his Datsun 510 that weekend.

Car needs to be seen in person to be appreciated entirely.
I stepped out of trailer and saw IT. Car was parked few yards away from our paddock at HAWK. Dropped wrench and rags or whatever was in my hands at the time , and in zombie like manner walked to it.
Car is absolutely STUNNING !!! except one thing ….it isn't mine :(
I snapped few photos, nothing like some pros posted here, but……
