looking for a roller
Ok, maybe this thread will fare better. I am in need of a wrecked 911 running or not or a decent roller, OR a beat car for a conversion and resto project here at our shop. Let me know what you have no matter its condition.
Thanks,
Kevin

Whats your shop I plan on getting to Gettysburg and DC in the distant future to take my daughter to the Smithsonian and I thought I would visit the battlefield also. What kind of project are you thinking please don't say a backdated rs clone they are overrated. A mid year RSR would look nicw or I have always liked the 934 look if done right.

I agree, a 959 will be tough but do it right and it will be great. The hardest part will be getting all the little details right. What are the plans for the motor I have seen some 3.2 twin turbos that will knock your socks off and would give you the opportunity to utilize those ducts on the quarters for what they are meant.

If I can get the 3.2 , that would be the ultimate in my book. If I can't, now ready for this, I WILL get flamed for this. A twin turbo 32V engine ( 928) as I have two here at the shop. My concern is the weight so if anyone has any feedback on that chime in please. I want to get down to the details on this one though. It will never fool any one but It will sit right with the proper wheels /mirrors and such. I have wanted a 959 since forever, and I will get this thing cosmetically as close as one can be. I don't care much, real or not, It just has that look!

Why is that? Not to start anything between the two car's fans, cause I love them both!!!! I have run high boost through these engines for years and they are just phenomenal powerplants. I thought it a better choice than a small block. My first choice is a twin 3.2, but huge money for that, I am searching though.
