    Very nice Mike ! I did not know that a 7R fuch wheel could be used in the back of a 1968 without rear fender modifications . I love the stance of the car as it is . By the way : Where can I get those yellow 128 fog lamp covers ?. Mine are white/clear but I have seen many cars like that.

    Very nice job Mike, I'm looking forward to seeing it. As with all of your builds, this one highlights your eye for detail. That's some radical camber to fit the wheel/tire combo, looks great.

    Mike,
    Two thoughts, WOW and welcome back! Your "sick" build skills once again have put together a car with just the "right" details within a budget. As we all battle through this economy, that's nice to see, great job! Look forward to seeing you and the car soon...hopefully the first weekend of November

    Great Car

    Very well done, great car, I am surprise you were able to find such a nice 912 and to be a Lt Ivory, not impossible, but not many rust free 912's around anymore. The 17k for the 912 is not bad and the 25k for the new 911 is a very good price.

    Bill
