Hamster's a Porsche fan, hence my question.
Who drives it is up to the customer, but I doubt that it will fit a lanky leadfoot wearing size 13 shoes in any case.

As with the factory M003 & Cup cars, we leave in the metal structure of the dash so that we can fit the standard 964 type knee pads. If you look carefully you can see that the cage goes through the air vent hole, so the trim pieces are all left intact.
All the dash panels, the dash top, steering wheel, centre console and seat pads are covered in black alacantara which is done for us by a (highly skilled/experienced) friend. If anyone wants this doing for their interior we can certainly have it done but will need you to send us the pieces to be trimmed, I'm afraid we can't offer an exchange service (I think I was asked via email about doing a dash top) other than for GT3RS steering wheels (which we normally do in black with red, blue or yellow colour centre marker).

Also, I really like the alcantara dash.

Just remember that you saw it here first!
(In fact it's already been copied by one of our competitors who saw the car in our workshop whilst we were building it and used the idea for his own 964RS looky-likey.)

However the good news is that one of Baf's mates has taken loads of footage at Brands and will be posting something after this weekend.

Very nice Mr B...It must be very satisfying cherry picking the parts to make such a car and then seeing the result.
Impressed at the weight, especially for a widebody with arches,,,slightly confused by speakers and radio blanking plate, does the owner intend to fit his own ICE?...as we both know in a CS you will not hear anything once you are moving, the mechanical sounds echoing round the shell are the only music you need!

As for the speakers, the customer intends to use his Ipod but requested the option to fit a head unit at a later date, so behind the dash are euro plugs ready to go. Look closely though, it's not just an ordinary blanking plate, it's trimmed in skived leather!
