Default Intro and my little green hot rod.
Hi,

Like many on here I have an addiction to these old 911s. I'm a real time control systems engineer by profession and a serial car builder in my spare time.

Lovely warm and sunny day here in the UK and I just took a few photos of my SC based daily drive hot rod. Seemed like a good opportunity to get onto Rennlist!


Hope you like it!









Cheers,

Jonny

Cheers,

The door cards are custom made. Brown leather with leather pulls straps and Mk1 Golf GTI door handles. All in brown of course!

Wow! That is one sexy ride. I love it!


Why is the upper door hinge pin not seated. Is that how it is supposed to be?

The hinge pin is like that so you can use the factory tool on the pin lip to extract it without damaging the paint.

Amazing car. Love the color, stance, and checkered seats. Very cool! That fuse panel project is on my list of things to do.
