My new to me 79 SC..
Hi guys good afternoon!
Not new to rennlist, but new to the aircooled group! I finally pulled the trigger and bought a 79 SC from a friend of mine upgrading to a 964. Im in love, I understand now the pleasure of a raw, unaided driving experience that requires driver engagement. For me, it translates into a blissful therapy. I hope to learn a thing or two from you guys and try to give back as much as I can as I learn the car.
I cant post pics from my phone app, but i will be posting pics shortly!

Looks nice!
FYI, you REALLY, really need the factory front lip spoiler to match that rear tail, otherwise you get major high speed lift & understeer. These are designed & intended to be installed as matched components.

Thank you guys! I am deleting and simplifying. I took out the wooden foot rest panels from underneath the mats and replaced with rennline Aluminum ones, took out the AC Console, and probably the radio will be coming off as well 
. Just changed the engine mounts, painted the Fuch wheels back to their original color. Raised the car back to original spec (previous owner had it too low). I am 36 years old and I can honestly say that I enjoy the driving experience of my air cooled SC more than my 997 TT. It reminds me of my dads car, the smell, the feel, the simplicity, and the fact that you really need to be engaged without any nanny systems that tell your wheels what to do!
