This has been on my mind since I bought a 993 C4S. Or before.

It seems like chopping the top of a normal 993 is not unlike chopping the top of a '49 Mercury. If you line up the pie cuts, re-weld well, a reasonably talented person could do it.

And, although I'm not reasonably talented, I'm actually thinking about doing it. Or having someone do it for me.

I know that the GT1's were mid-engined, and I will keep all normal 993 dimensions and layout, including rear-engine position. So what else do I need to do to a 993 in order to make it look like a GT1? The GT1 is longer, for example.

And I guess I'm targeting the 1996 GT1, which looks most like a street 993.

So I think that this is crazy, but any advice would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Matt

What's a 992?

99 is the 9.9% ABV of the IPA beer that inspired this idea, and 2 is the number of them I have consumed.

I think you should consume numbers 3-12, pass out, and reset. You may change your mind in the morning.

Please don't chop it. Your C4S is as beautiful as cars get.

Or just save yourself the headache and buy one:

p.s. and yes, you sound a little crazy coming up with crazy ideas like this.
but I definitely want to be there when you take a sawzall to your roof. I'll bring the beer. This is going to be awesome. I'll video the process for a RL DIY chop shop.
This is going to be FUN!!
