Good job Mikey! Long time coming...

Thanks guys, I've been working on it for a few more weekends. I've got a few more pictures.

Radiator with summit racing 16AN fittings and braided stainless hoses. The radiator is also summit.

Rear shot of the 5-bar brace, new shocks...

Side shot with painted calipers.

Close up of the painted caliper, I can't decide to put "Porsche" back on it or not.

Front shot showing the lower AN fitting. Still missing alternator. I made the brackets to hold the intercooler above the intake.

Rear shot of the engine showing the back of the intercooler, it still needs finished.


I really appreciate all the support I've recieved on this project. While some of the car is up to the standard I would like to see. There are some parts that are not. I am sometimes almost embarassed to take pictures of the sub-standard parts. That's why the updates are so far and few. I really want this car to be perfect, but at that rate. I'll never finish it.

Thanks again,

Thanks again,

You make what you can how you can. Sometimes you go back and re-make a part to get better function, sometimes you pretty it up. Everyone doesn't have a five-axis or the ability to tig like a robot. Be proud of the parts you can afford and what you accomplish!
