Default Got the 968 turbo cab out today, a few pictures!

Probably one of the last nice days in Ohio, so I took one last cruise & wash before the snow falls. I need to move south so there are no last season cruises! Here are a few pics I took before putting her in the garage.

Its a 1994, The conversion was done using the 944 2.7N/A head, It has a KKK 28/8 Turbo, 46mm Tial wastegate, 3" speedforce racing exhaust...to name a few goodies.

Hey, that car would look a lot better with that ugly third brake light shaved off!! It would only take $150 plus shipping!

It is not that bad. You have seen the "ET" head HMSL used on the 911 cabs of the same time period.

It may just be the photo, but are there two fender screws missing inside the driver's fender?

Great looking car.
How long did it take to do the conversion?
In shop hours?

Yeah I saw that too, it's because the 968 coolant reservoir was moved over to fit.
