Have yet to adjust front subframe offset. Motor and tranny are out, so rear ride height is a little bit SUV

That sledgehammer in the background of the one drivers side photo is ominous.

Great journey!

Yes, I specifically left it in the frame when I cropped the photo, thought it was a great juxtaposition

Matt, the body shop you are using would they do work for others or is your project the only one they want to play with?

It worked in the best Hollywood scary movie tradition, "look behind you!"

Hey Rob, What color was this car originally?

Between this car, your 2004 Cup and now your 2010 Cup they have all been super clean examples!

Original color was red. I saw Rob's old 6-cup at NJMP a couple weeks ago.... ridiculously clean

Yep, it was red when I bought it as a plain jane C2 in 2006, and there is a thread somewhere in the 993 section when I did the build and changed it to Riviera Blue, full track car. Matt has made further mods that I had planned on doing.

The car has tons of OEM RS and cup parts, 3.8, and then some.

I still blame Bill V. for that project. ;-)

Not bored with 2010 Cup.......yet. Trade? :-)
