Having peered through the photos for the third time, the quality of work and the finished result is fantastic.

You are either highly skilled or plagued with OCD!

Either way - good job...

Really nice finish Geoff the car sits really nicely!

Simply spectacular. Would you like to trade for my 911?

My only suggestion is to match the chrome surrounds on the doors with ones on the windshield and rear screen

Hi,

I have recently purchased an old air cooled 911, it is my next in line project, but thanks for the offer.

I may look at a front screen moulding in the future, I haven't fitted the one I have because I may put a new screen in.

Jeff – Belated congratulations, your car looks stunning.



Well I am certainly not surprised as it really stands out and I am sure the reaction will be even better when you tell people you built & painted it yourself.



Well if you can’t achieve perfection with your skills, I have no hope working outside with a brush!

Thankfully, I’ve already experienced the reaction my car gets on the road, so I can live with slightly bigger blemishes.

Enjoy, Paul.

PS
I hope you carry a spare battery cut off key as the Londoner in me expects someone to steal anything that is in easy reach.

we should have a non kitcar project page for such things ...love a 911 but these days they are ££££££

Love this car, full of details, really like the steering wheel! and the cut off (E) sticker and pull through front side vent, i looked for something small to fit there and could'nt find anything that would easily fit, it would be great to get a close up of what you have done here? I have been trying to find out if the Bruce Meyer car is on dispaly in the states somewhere as would love to see it first hand, specifically for that part...!

Also love the mudflaps, again any photo of rear ones please, would like to see how you secured them. Oh, and really really like the detail on the rear screen, shame I have a convertible

Only small point is that your exhausts seem to be too short and don't poke out enough to trip passers by up!

Cheers!

Yes ,

The exhaust could do with being a bit longer, they were a temporary fix until I decide which route to go with them.

I will get some pics of the bits you mentioned tomorrow and put them up in the evening.

To fit the extinguisher pull I did have to cut a small hole in the inner bonnet skin it was the only way to get the retaining nut on.

Jeff, How do you find the seats? Are they the BB2's? I did search but couldnt find a mention.

I like the look of them but just wonder how the lack of adjustability affects you on long journeys?

Very nice, like the look you have achieved. The finish is one of the best so far, well done with this build.

Hi,

Yes you are correct they are Clubman BB2's come from good old E-bay.

On a journey of two or so hours not too bad, but any thing more and I do start to feel a bit uncomfortable.

They could do with the back rest being adjustable , to be honest they were cheap as chips at 200 quid the pair so will do for now.
