    Thanks to both of you for the info. It has 14” Fuchs on it which look too small to my eye. I have 16x7s on another 70’s hot rod 911 and like how they fill the wheel wells (my other car is extremely low, however).

    I’m considering a local set of 15x7 widened steelies until I decide if I want to track down some Mahles or most likely larger diameter Fuchs. Might go pick the steelies up this weekend. Car drives and shifts fine and has a brand new set of PMOs on it which I’ll need to get retuned for out here.

    Honestly, I knew the car had body/previous repair issues and that the paint was crap.. but for what I ended up paying I think I’m okay financially even knowing what will need to be done to make it right. There’s also a couple boxes of unopened parts that I need to inventory.

    Again, thanks for the info. My next step is finding and hiring a decent mid-range 911 resto shop to get this tub stripped, repaired, and painted crystal blue without it costing six figures.

    Im a sucker for that color too.

    Id look for date coded matching set of Fuchs to make the car nice.

    I have a shop in Tarpon Springs Florida if you need body and paint. I have two celette benches and we are currently working on two 911s and two 356 porsches.

    I would cut you a special rate as i would love to paint it. I think it also deserves Glasruit paint to be honest to really represent the color.

    PM if interested.

    This will prove harder than buying the car. I wish you all the luck in the world. I've been here. Last car took 6 years but it was GOOD.

    Good, Fast and Cheap

    If it is done good and fast it won't be cheap
    If it is done good and cheap it won't be fast
    If it is done cheap and fast it won't be good.

    If you do the car right, you will have a matching number crystal blue 911. Worth $100-150k
    That would require bare tub, celette, finding/restoring original steel bumper/fenders, finding/restoring date coded wheels etc....

    Well worth it given what the car is.
