Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
So.....
Into my mates garage for a few jobs and checks ready for Scotland
Window mechanism had fallen to bits in France so that needed sorting
Some rust on the bonnet was annoying me so the next thing I knew I had a picture sent to me of the bonnet bare metalled.
May as well try something new if we're getting the paint gun out - plus I get bored easily.
Work in progress, mid polishing, some bits to do and a few decals etc.
See you in Scotland!

Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
Back end looks much better. Ties the whole thing in with the bumpers especially if you leave it clean like that without letters. Makes the grille jump out too.
Just one thing, that plate really needs the numbers spaced right. It really ril
es me.

Mike

Cheers,
Needs dressing but picked it up earlier and I'm really pleased with the new updates. Will finish everything off at the weekend. I think Noddy will approve and happily take Big Ears out for a spin.

Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
Looking good !
Have you lowered it a bit more ? Ride height looks 'spot on' ...

Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
It's had very slight adjustment. Had it set up whilst having a good check over for Scotland

Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
Yep, worthwhile improvements Tom.
I like the yellow Porsche script on the deck lid.
That red & yellow scheme shouldn't work but it does, car is looking fabulous.

Re: Speed Yellow Hot Rod 911
Where do you get the rear side windows with the louvre, and would a set of 8 X 15 s and 11 X 15s work just as good as 9 X 15s. Reason is I have only 8s !
