Hi Miles,

Curious how you decided to proceed. Feel free to call me if you're still considering selling your car.

This particular chassis is on its way to a new owner as a donor body for a car that was truly totaled. I'm sure that making this a track car would have been the easiest route, but I hesitated in seeing another VIN taken off the road.

Nice Gene. Did you make that roller cart or buy it? I could use one for my race car project.

I built it a few years ago. It has a bunch of miles one it! It made moving the body around my shop and trailering to the media blaster and body shop a breeze.

Default Updating an OLD Thread

Miles' misfortune became the genesis of my 968Turbo build. Originally conceived as an LS3 conversion, I had a moment of clarity that a turbo conversion would be a brighter idea. The car is finally on the road and once the break in miles are logged, I'll head to the dyno for a final tune. Once the final tune is out of the way, I'll replace the front bumper and finish up the hatch spoiler etc. Gene
