John:
I really like your wonderful attention to detail. Sans the bumperette looks better to me....but I am an ST nut. And there are those days when you may want to go up town and park in the raised pinky crowd lot, so you can bolt on the fancy work.

John, nice look IMO. I really like what you have done with the car. I too like the w/o look of the S/T and have been debating the sans bumperette look on my car too. With the new LP panel to install (thanks Tom and Gib), I think that might be a killer look.
To go the full LtWt route, you still have to remove the allen bolts though.

You're right, of course, Scott, but if I modify the lower bracket and copy the LP panel of the Waaldegard car, I'll loose the ability to ever put the bumper guards back on, since it's that exposed bracket & bottom bolt which keep the guards firmly in place......and as I said above, nothing is ever really finished.Originally Posted by t6dpilot

How did they hold the LP panels on on the original ST'?
John, your car looks great as always. I also like the bumper-less look I think painting your bumper guards one of the body colors would make them blend more. The black is rather bold against the rest of the car. (not that the car isn't bold)! =)

Hi everyone,
10 years ago i went to california for vacation. Like other young men i really like latest version of Porsche car. But to be honest with you i had never seen a early 911 before this trip to california. I live in Quebec Canada and we really don't have alot of these car around. So one day in a parking of a grocery store i saw the perfect 911 style i ever seen. It was a early green 911 driven by a beatiful women. I found immediatly in love not with the woman but with the car. The shape, the chrome bumper, the headlight, the wheels, everything was perfect. So i decided to found one for myself. I had 25 years old at this time and when i came back home my father and friends don't understand why i prefered early 911 than newest one. Finally 5 years later i found one early 911 1970T in Virginia in perfect condition and since that time i'm still in love with this car and hope to have the money to buy a coupe 911S over the coming years. It's a real passion and this site is amazing. Thank's to all of you.
Sebastien.
