build to drive

[TeckniX]

Really like the creativity going into this car. Seems like its going in the right direction, but I wanna see some of that 15x10.5 installed!

Nice build i will be following this thread for sure.
Really like what you did to the seat i would never have the balls to try that.
I hope to own one of these at some point it's one of my all time favorites.

almost forgot the little things i did right before break..
put on some rennline open lugs and empi glass covers which really completed the look of the front end


i also used some street signs i had laying around from a bucket seat i made for school to make rain covers for my carbs..the rain hats for webber sell for 200$+ so i just made my own for free

finally got some time to work on the porsche during spring break. borrowed my brothers oil temp gauge off his car since it isnt really working. made a cover to go over the factory porsche clock so i could mount the smaller gauge. Also, i finally got my clutch!!! Patrick motorsports centerforce dual friction clutch and sachs throw out bearing. i also scored a new transaxle with trailing arms and breaks and axles from an older lady for couple hundred dollars. The trailing arm on my car was bent on the drivers side forcing me to run retarded negative camber. Oh and the new trans is a 5 speed instead of 4






oh yea and i swapped in a new starter while the trans was out and replaced the old trailing arm bushings and shifter bushings with solid performance bushings

these solid bushing make a big difference in corners

went for the royal because i was in a deep steering wheel/wooden/rainbow flake phase...now i realise how slippery it can get during some spirited driving on the mountain and im getting into a deep steering wheel/yellow center line/black suede phase..so might be getting another wheel haha. sorry for not updating.been really busy with school (architecture student=no sleep or money) i havent had time or money to do anything to my 911 except drive the shit out of it atleast once a week and kill my clutch...i got curious and bored so i think a clutch kick here and there began the slipping..new clutch on the way.
in other news ive been working on my other baby..oh yea my other car is a 1961 vw bug ragtop...it was my first car.i got it when i was 14 and it had no motor, interior, or working brakes...heres a pic when it was sparking every little road imperfection and entering hellaflush for shits and giggles..(before i began to cut it into pieces.



should i make a build thread for this one too?

[Vwdubluvin]

this car is gonna be quite the character!

[johnnyb123]

wood and glittterrrrr! duhh!!!!!

[motocaddy]

Such a great build with character. Props on the work on the seat. Good vision and execution.

Any reason you went from a Personal wheel to the grip royal fake china wheel?
