    you will see plenty of pics of the car being restored including pelnty of before and after stuff. the cancer had really gotten into the front end and they did an amzing job geting the right bits and welding it back together.

    My project car had far less rust up front, mainly in the rockers and floors, but these are now all new.

    The alumn front fenders are a work of art. Judging by the English Wheel present in the background shots, looks like theu made these by hand. These guys are GOOD.

    This site has provided an invaluable resource for my R project.

    You can probably save the $10 and just downlaod all the pics off Ernie's site.
    I’d love to see the photos of R3 being restored. They aren’t on Ernies page anymore, granted that was 15 years ago. Does anyone have them? Thanks.

    As I commented in your linked post

    Sorry I don’t believe that weight of the 911r is anywhere close to being accurate

    Not only is it far below anything else reported it would imply a 48/52% weight distribution which we know was wrong. The 67S has 41/59 for example.
