Wow, car looking great, love the previous shots with the Fuchs, are those 15's or 16's ( I know you showed them before but too lazy to find). The factory 930 has about a 1" spacer on the rear hub with longer studs, you'll be fine with 3/4" spacers and longer studs.
That's a great looking rotisserie, wish I could stop the spending on the new dd and focus on the p-cars... I really miss my 914, these threads are so inspiring. You're pretty close, im on south oc, if you really need a hand let me know and I'll make some time to lend a hand. |

Andy,
This is a great thread, thanks for posting everything. Can I ask you where you got your rotisserie? And are you planning to sell it after you finish your 6? I'm up for buying it from you if you are. Gary |

Thanks for the nice comments guys!!! I'm living my dream with this car and have many here to thank for helping make it possible and getting it done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
