damn those are beautiful!!! no way i could fit them without cutting my car up. im still on the fence about welding in some flares. it would look fucking bad ass and i could run some really wide wheels but it would also cut down the value of my car. But its not like my body is in perfect shape either. idk we'll see when the time comes.. but heres a pic of what i have in my room waiting to be rebarreled 15x10.5 and 15.8 both with 5" inner barrels

All good, can't wait to see those mounted. My wheels are going into storage anyways now, so in about 3 months when they are available if you did go with flares it may be possible.

Please keep this updated, it is definitely one of my favorite builds on here.

Oh my goodness! I would never have the guts to do what you did to the seat, but man, it came out perfect! Totally nailed the old look you were going for.

This. Not going to lie, I almost cried a bit when I saw the first cut picture



This is honestly one of my favorite builds on here after reading it. Keep up the awesome work, and most of all, keep updating!

Loving this build, the paint and work look great!

BTW shameless plug, but my wheels would looks amazing on your car if you could fit them. (OEM 15x9 15x11 BBS RS for Porsche)

You're a mad man! Keep it up.

I love the way you refinished the racing seat keep it up.

It's got potential. How come the finish on the seat doesn't look smooth?

i think thats from the finishing resin. i was kind of in a rush to apply it so it could dry in time so i could go to work

I built a '67 912 and had a similar issue with the gauges. I didn't like how the LEDs didn't light up the whole gauge face. I chose to disassemble each one and install EL wire around the inside of the face to provide nice even lighting.



I know it looks blue in the pic, but it was just the camera. Sorry for the blurriness. Hard to take pics in the dark.

Nothing wrong with welding in sandals and shorts, just don't cry from the sunburns and spatter on your skin.
