Dead on!

BTW, I hope you update the site pretty soon. While my car was in getting Terry's paintjob "the ill fated rebuild" was a major part of my pcar fix.

It sure is coming together! I'm getting excited and it's not even my car! Can't wait to see it.
Congrats on a job well done.

The wheels are 17" ATP Riva's. They do not make this offset unless it is special order. The only other time I have seen them on a Porsche is on a white Shark with blue graphics. (Sweet car BTW) I know Dan was looking into getting a set made, but not sure how far that came along.

I did all the paint work myself. Spies Hecker 2K single stage paint, and a lot of prep work. You won't find a tape line anywhere. I am very happy with how it turned out.

As far as being afraid to drive it... that is what I built it for. This thing will see several hundreds of thousands of miles before I part it back out and burn the carcass. (or be buried in it)

The rest of the car should be done in the next month or so. I'll have a video of it's return. If you are one of the lucky ones, it will be at 944 Fest '03.

Thanks for all the kind words.
