Looked gorgeous en-route to LeMans Classic this year. Coincidentally on the same train as you both directions!

Not sure if Frank has seen it, but it has been up on the Face book page Porsche 964 B/S/T
Lots of comments about it on there.

Still on the Rear Seat delete, I see Mark (Orp73) had something made.

Franco, I would seriously consider that too.. The price for originals is just ridiculous, you could have something much nicer made for less

The difficult part is what to do about the doors if one is made.

We need to see what Mark has had made.

The only issue I see is how you deal with the doors.

Let's see how Mark's looks.

Following this with interest Frank. How will you deal with the wheels? Will you have to buy a 1:18 race car model bearing BBS GT2 and then cannibalise?

Isn't 3D printing just the coolest tech to hit the consumer market for years Forget your iPads, smart phones etc, thats just miniaturization and nothing new in concept.

Dunno.... 3D printing has been around for ages for industrial use? So isn't it just miniaturisation for consumer use?

Don't get me wrong its an AWESOME capability we can now get hold of!
