this is all great, impressive build quality etc...though one wonders: the most important part on a backdate is the work around front/spare wheel well which still needs to be done ??? So at 6800 euros + shipment in the ballpark figure of 10 k, plus a significant amount of labor....steel still seems to be correct path..

Hello mates! I've toying with the idea of hotroding a 964 and never heard of the concept of backdating it to the 64-73 look which I think looks killer. I've been looking at this thread for some time now and think I know how I want to tackle this process. I'm close on closing a deal on 92 c2 that was converted to an rs clone. I figured this would be a good car to start with since the bumpers and hood have already been replaced. Can anyone recommend a shop in Florida preferably south Florida that has experience backdating. I'm not interested in anyone that has not done this before. I know plenty of capable shops but would rather have someone who has done this before. Your help is much appreciated! Thanks.

I think this longhood conversion was done in Tallahassee at G. Davis Auto. (sorry not Southern Florida)
