I got your old seats in my SC.

If only the actual build speed was as impressive as the page count of this thread! I think you should have kept the red interior.. (Red) is fast!

Ed - good to see you on Dorki. Welcome to the mad house!

Yep this project has been interesting for me as well. Peter is a character and working with him on this build has been entertaining! I knew the black '86 would eventually be back on the track/street.

Actually the can can red interior is now living on in a '88 Carrera. If you look closely you can see it in this pic:

Scott- it never ceases to amaze me what a small community this 911 world is. I remember when you first posted a pic of the car on Pelican and I told myself there can't be two of those in existence.

Now if my suspension parts end up in Peter's (my old) car, so I have a say in the final color?

You'll have to discuss the paint color with Peter, and do it quick. The car is being painted in the next few days!
