Fred's 964

I was given a brown wide body 964 for my birthday, but someone wrote graffiti all over it. I had to take it out to my shop and do some repairs. Some people don't understand it is blasphemy to do such damage. Pictures below:



The way I found it....




As it looks now:



After looking at the body alignment, I decided to just part it out and eat it.... It is such a shame to part out this rare automobile...

happy 55, fred

(terrible offsets: this thread's common theme...)

i'd say my wheelbase was the bigger worry.....!

...ahhh, color at first distracted that point, but, yeah -- wheelbase looks touchy.

-- and Fred will have big time cooling requirements, as well. (And longevity. It probably won't last the week. Still -- that's one sweet ride...)


edit: good one, Fred. Looks like they modeled a targa's rear glass?

Lonnie, I agree the offsets are pretty bad. I think they were the rare optional solid wheels. They only came on the cars assembled in the Hershey Pennsylvania plant. As I was zooming it around the kitchen table, the tires were hitting the inner fenders. I don't think rolling the fenders will do the trick.

I may try to modify the offset before I part it out. Maybe carve turbo wheels... Do we have too much free time, or what?

Rims split the wrong way though... The car was purchased at Schakolad Chocolate factory in Orlando. The website doesn't currently list the Porsche.
