I worked very hard on cleaning the car up inside and out. Still not done.


The problem with the bigger motor is the weight. Sure it makes up in HP. But in a car likes this more weight on the rear is a no no.

I have a family member who is a mechanical genius. We were planning on building the motor ourselves.

In the end I doubt I will have the courage nor the wallet to change much. Just restore it a little more. Not wrap it around a tree. And keep it as long as possible.

I love the interior color (not the seats), and I love the wheels so much.

Gorgeous car! There is an early 70's 911 in my near future. Love the look but have yet to get my hands on one. Congrats and welcome.

Looks like a nice find. And if my eyes serve me correctly that is light ivory paint... Same color as my '14.

If you are interested in seats I would recommend calling Stefan @ GTS Classics... He built the seats in my car to fit my frame and did a fantastic job.

See attached pic.
