While attending the F1 race in Austin, my buddy and I took part in Hill Country Region's BBQ outing at the Salt Lick BBQ. They had a display of cars including two Singer's. Unbelievable cars. You will love your car!











There was a 959 there as well but everyone was crowded around the Singer's. BTW, Derek Bell was the main speaker and did a fantastic job. Forgot to take my good camera so I took these photos with my Iphone.

I reached a deal today on the donor car. It is a '91 C2 with 125,000 miles, 5 speed manual. No hit body, no rust. Had the chassis dimensions checked this morning and it is within specification.

Thank you for the 70s color options. I agree with you, the color needs to be special, something vintage and true Porsche.

Also I know Singer maintains likes to maintain the curves with the 964 rear spoiler, I would really consider the Duck tail as an alternative.

Enjoy the planning!
While I like the duck tail, especially on the RS cars, I think my choice is to maintain the curves of the rear and allow the roof line to flow to the tail pipes.
