Hey guys & girls !
About 6months ago I posted about my soon to arrive 89 GT Track car project. Well, things did`nt work out that way, so I got a cheaper 91 S4 instead.
I`ve been working on it for about 2 weeks now, and this is where I stand :
This is how it looked when I first got it on my lawn

Ketil,
Its looking good! If you are not using your front tag bracket and plate I would be interested in buying it. Always wanted to put a German tag on front.

Hi Ketil,
Looks like a fun project.
I had thought that Porsche went to using stickers on the calipers with the Company name by '91, but I could be mistaken. Do you put in the clutch and brake pedal yourself, or did they come with the car?
