You are going to get a lot of "why would you bother" type comments...
Thinking a 993 based "Singer" type build? I am not educated enough in this area to add anything of value, but don't ppl use 993 fenders/bumpers on 964's? Probably possible.

Not possible. The hood line of the 993 has a higher profile than the earlier cars.

Anything's possible with enough time and money. But -- dear lord, why? Just get a 964.

Do you mean the fire wall where the wipers are? Thanks.

Isn't the hood the same since 1974?
I'm curious to see how this idea would look.

It would look like one of the girls who is skinny sitting behind a desk, and then stands up and has a huge bedonkadonk....

If you do the front, the back must be done too.

Just custom mod the hood to be similar in appearance to a long hood early 911 and perhaps raise or change the corner lights somehow... Here's my "smoke some weed and complete a bad photoshop of what I think Singer would build out of a 993" idea
