Thanks Colin! I agree... this is my favorite build of all the ones I've seen! I get excited every time I see a new posting! This is going to be a gorgeous car, and I can't wait to see the engine come together! Keep up the good work!

Colin,
Could a similar build be done starting with a 993 as the basis? I think everything would fit and work and you'd get the updated rear suspension... Of course, I am a 993 owner, thus the line of thinking... No flames please. I love the 964! It's the last of the "old school" 911s... even though I know it was a thoroughly modern car.
You guys do absolutely fantastic work! Just fantastic~!

A bottle neck in the assembly shop caused by a failed 964 supercharger crank pulley has locked up one of our 2 post lifts so yesterday we had a huge shift around to get my 993RS out of the way so we could get the 9m11RS on the other lift. Now that the car is lifted we can finally start work on the gearbox install and running gear assembly. The priorities are to get it rolling so we can work out the ideal wheel offsets and to hang the gearbox/gearlever so we can have the shorter GT3RS shift cables manufactured.

The Old Dutch himself was in town today so after showing him the progress on the shell we had a perfect excuse to get out all the new carbon panels which have been sat around in boxes for the last couple of weeks. However, since in this case a picture is easily worth 1000 words, here's a few snapshots of the goodies that will be going onto the shell once it has been e-coated. What I can't show you however is the weight of the panels, or more to the point, lack of weight..... 
I mean pre73 look carbon fibre panels.
front fenders, hood, front and rear bumpers
Non RSR design.
In soloporche.com forum, someone asked for a site to purchase pre73 carbon fibre to backdate a 964 C2.
Thanks in advance!

Is possible to purchase carbon panels in any place/website?

... and some detail shots to go with the outside.
Please excuse badly focused underhood area, difficult to use Iphone one-handed whilst holding up the bonnet.

alltough i've been there only 3 weeks ago, but this car in real is even more breathtaking than on the photos! The only problem with this car is that make my mind spinning and finding out some new project.
for example a backdated 964 to a longhood ST in signal green. any interest on it?
I know, i have to keep focus on my "now" project, but i'm a dreamer..
