maybe someone has asked already but what are you running for wheels and tires? Any spacers? Another question: Any details of the front trunk with the gas tank?


Rick,
Fuchs are 7x15 Fr/ 8x15 Rr , no spacers front or rear.
Rear rotors are actual M471 gt spec which are mfg with a taller "Hat" which puts the wheel outboard approx 1".
100 litre fuel tank* is also a spec M471 gt OE mfg unit. The common frunk bulkhead is removed so the tank will fit, then a square steel strut is put back in its place in order keep the unibody rigid.
*I think that MittleMotor (Germany) might be offering newly mfg tanks*

Check the price on the MittleMotor tank (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
You will be way ahead with a FuelSafe 914 tank, it has a bladder (for impact safety) and built in pump; you're ALL in for less than $2k !
There's a pic of this tank over in our 9148gtt build thread.

Marty,
Thanks for giving my wife photo credit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Hope you liked the pics she took of your car in Panorama. You didn't hear this from me, but you might be pleasantly surprised when you see the official RennSport 7 photo book (hopefully for sale in early 2024)

Merry Christmas,
Dominic, Kristina and Family

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas/ Happy New Year Dominic + Kristina and kids !
We enjoyed the professionalism + creative pics that Kristina snapped of #40. Matthew was grilled with all sorts of questions, as I was opening up doors, trunks and engine lids; all while getting our rig and trailer staged to get loaded and home before Monday's L A. Sunrise. It all worked out, and we will def be on the lookout for the RR7 book !

@campbellcj Looking tight !ยก B+W has that crisp period-correct look as well.
It actually rained a lot at the 1970 LM24. Enjoy the Holidays Chris (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
