Just managed to source and fit a pair of original GT3 buckets, they are significantly lighter than the comfort seats, should help with the power to weight ratio! like it needs to be faster
Not too sure about the red wheels
maybe some subtle red graphics might set them off.
Post 74 it is!
Looks great John, good job getting the proper seats and not a pair of sparcos LOL.
Yep, the wheels are going to need graphics, colour matched GT3 scripts and continuation stripes for front and rear overhangs. In my professional opinion..

Oh at least another month or so. All of the metalwork is finished, just needs paint but Bruce is so busy and my car isn't important when you look at some of the things he has in for work. Not in a huge rush, the end of April would be good. And I've still got to refurbish all of the things going back on. As long as it's ready for September.....

I've an 82 SC. Engine and Gearbox rebuilt. Ready for summer.
My 993 C4. Spent time this year getting the handling sorted by replacing anything rubber in the suspension. Seems to have done the trick.

That is in nice shape and nice understated colour. Where are you in Scotland?

Hi - thanks. I'm just outside Edinburgh just now. Dublin for last ten years but there just now anyway. Haven't seen too many classics in the Scottish central belt although there are a few I know. Expecting to go to the Hedingham event with a group...
