Unless you do airbag override, please read up on the dangers of a 3 year old in front. Not trying to preach, and everyone has their own risk tolerance, I just ask you read up.

Beautiful car. Nice find.
Thank you and thanks for the heads up on the airbag delete.

The wheels are for sale on ebay currently but I am UK based so I really think the shipping would kill the deal.

I made a keyswitch over-ride for the passenger airbag. 2.7ohm resistor is all that's required. DPDT key switch to be extra safe!

Do you happen to have a write up on the airbag switch? Regarding the OP, great car! Love the slate gray!! Very rare and hard to find.

Maybe a rail set with a hinged cross member across the front can be fabricated so the front seat can be slid and then tilted forward for entry and then latched back in position once the person is in the back seat.
Any thoughts on this?

Hi GT TWO,

Great buy, I phoned Steve as the deal was going through congrats I think you should have some fun in it. Can I ask what led you to a 993 after the 964?

Also, assuming JPS is too far, I would love to talk to you about the heigo if its comming out, I'm based in London. My plans for rear seats are going in the other direction at the moment...

M.
