[Nutter965]

Hi everyone, just introducing myself and my project ! Some of you will have seen this car forsale here on the world, McMark was selling it for J Stroud, it was shipped over to Northern Ireland after a 6 week sea journey .
This pic is it leaving Marks old place


And it's arrival in my workshop

[Nutter965]

So i suppose i shold set the task list and the goals but the ultimate goal is to have a running drivig car !

Tasks-

1a) straighten body and repair the small amout of rust, lengthen front footwell to accept 911 RHD pedal assembly, move park brake to right side including long indent, move parkbrake cable tubes to right side, move steering coulmn mount and make sure it all mounts up.

2) Have the shell media blasted, fit Maddogs engine mount, inner long kit, chassis kit and sway bar reinforcement and then prep for paint.

3)Cut up dash and weld up as right hand drive, including 911 ignition switch i think i'm going to use an early dash as it gives me more room to play with as there is no dash vents,

4) Paint the car still onthe fence on the colour, i'll maybe do a poll closer to the time

5) While the shells away i'll rebuild and modify the suspension, i'm going for Elephant racing coil overs and bushes, Weiltmister front sway bar standard rear bar (thanks Garold) 911 park brake (Tangerine Racing).
Brakes are 911S front calipers, 911 Rear brakes complete, drilled and grooved front and rear vented discs

6) Build the suspension back in to the shell, wiring, dash, lights, doors, glass. rubber seals (thanks Mark)
Wheels i know what i want but there a supprise ! just need to save up !

7) Hopefully my engine will have arrived and isnt in to bad shape .... freshen and install into car either Carbs or Throttle bodies with EFI knowing my luck it will need a full rebuild !

8)Interior custom carpets due to it being RHD, seats (i may go down the sports seats route) reinstall all the trim

9) pray alot that everything goes close to plan ......

so lots of this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) abit of this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) to hopefully do this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
