Key is reliability and drivability. This is my daily driver so I'm not getting too crazy with it.

The wipers will be reduced to 1 center unit with no washer nozzles

I apologize for the crappy pics, but hey, they're mechanics not photographers!

They got two big projects out the way and decided to have some fun with the 930 project. The shop guys wanted to have some fun so they taped the rear quarters on to judge fitment, which doesn't appear too bad.

The front fenders were supposed to have louvers like the original 935s, so I'm working with AIR to solve that problem.

All in all it looks like the rear tires will fit with no problems...however the quarters don't look as wide as I thought they would.









Front bumper to be used:

Somebody does extensions for the arches. I read about them on the 930 forum on Pelican.

AZ930

How much do each of those tires weigh?

ritzblitz

I thought those tires were going on your project 944?

God that is gonna be badass.

jesus christ im in love.

sick man. I've always loved the DP 935 cars. They were and still are my favorite

LuisGT3

Cool, good luck with the project.

Nice project car Guns, good luck with it and the other one too! When it's totally done, and you need some to shake it down on the track let me know!

MPD47

Or find out what the "weak" point is. let me know.

Didn't the 935 run bigger wheels (diameter) on the back relative to the front? Are you going to replicate this utterly cool aspect of these cars?

nathanUK '81 930 G50

They did do that to get a larger footprint on the ground. Pretty clever interpretation of the rules by the great Norbert Singer!

JFairman

I used to have one of the rear tires off of Kathy Rude's wadded up 935 in my backyard.
Used it as part of a table for a while...

It fit a 20" wheel.

Guns951

Hey guys, to answer some questions I'm running the same rear tires on the GTR project and the 930 so I can stock up on them in the garage and they'll be interchangable.

The drawback to the look is the weight of 47lbs per tire, and yes I'm trying to recreate the unusual rule interpretation that allowed them to run super wide wheels in the rear.

This car will be my daily drive and the GTR my weekend cruiser as it will have a larger investment in the paint job.

I'll keep everyone updated, paint and such should be done in November.

nathanUK '81 930 G50

The interpretation of the rule was the diameter, not the width. The width was limited by the rules.

Wow...keep the pics coming Guns and I cringe at the amount of money you're dropping into these. Way to go.
