I prefer the look of the car with my CCW's on it but the phone dials are cleaner (and concour'ing is more for cleanliness than cool looking...)


Looks great Jim!

They are the wheels and tires off a 996 Turbo.
235/40 ZR 18 on 8" wide rims with 1" spacers in front and
295/30 ZR 18 on 11" wide rims with 15mm spacers in the rear. I had to roll both outer fender lips and make some room on the passenger side inner fender to clear.
I forget the offset of the rims. A search would bring it up if you want to look.

I wish I had one that wasn't sitting on jack stands in my garage.

I gotta go out a swap transmissions now. Everyone have a great night. If I don't post within three or four days, someone come get the transmission off my chest.

Wow! Plenty of good looking cars in this thread.
My car is stock on the outside, but I'm almost done making a set of IC pipes and intake for my car. I like the look, and I can't wait to see the performance gains!

Well, The transmission didn't land on my chest.




It was about a foot in the air when it fell off the jack and landed on my left elbow. Those things are heavy and hard! Luckily the boys were asleep or they would have learned some new words. I'm gonna be sore for a while.

Goodness gracious, that definitely had to hurt.

I take it there weren't any broken bones?

I hear ya. I've got the Reutterwerks league that I've been in for years and really struggling for time to do that. Kid's are running me on a tight schedule these days.

I though it was broken for a minute or so. It was some of the worst pain I've ever felt. I do not remember how I got out from under the car.

I did not know that such a thing even existed. Where did you get it?
OTOH, once the pain subsided a bit, I went at it again and got it in. The trans won the battle but I won the war. I don't plan to be doing any trans swaps any time soon. If I hadn't been in a hurry, I would not have been doing it by myself in the middle of the night.

Slapped a LeMans rear wing on the black turbo. And yes, I already know I have a rather large exhaust pipe. Don't hate!
