Default Rico's 911R project

For those of you that have been following,
My project has been in the works since last August.
The 911 was taken apart, modified, and painted.
It is now in the final stages of reassembly.
I made up a small website and will add pics
until its done which I hope will be by the time Sebring
rolls around March 17.

I finally received the 911 from the restorer this week...9 months of waiting!
I snapped a few pics. Will post more on my website next week.
Still a lot of of things need to be done until its "completed".

Oh my god. Your avatar. I remember now I had that poster on my wall as a teenager (minus the RICO change). Maybe this is why I love Porsche.

Your website of the restoration is cool. Also cool that the previous owner left you a message!
