Well, usually you see most people saying how do I make my 996 looks like something else. Can't say I've ever seen this done.

Well, this is the first time I've seen any aircooled Porsche converted to a 996. Heart be still!
If it were me, I'd turn it BACK into it's original aircooled 1980 911 body. I love the 996, but not like this.

That is one of the strangest conversions or body kits that I have ever seen.

I agree with you guys it wouldn't be the work I would of done to it that's for sure. But it really doesn't look all that bad in person. Definitely turns a lot of heads lol. I think I did a good deal on it. I'm going to drive it enjoy it and fix things as they pop up for the moment.

Yes, I wish you good luck and happy smiles and many many miles.....was this an original insurance crashmobile restored with extensive use of fiberglass and a host of bonding agents? Although I have daydreamed of using various parts from a RS 60 Boxster along with installing a 996 turbo to a roller Boxster, with some refinements in the outlaw spirit, however, for me the jury is still out for this concept. However, I did install sugar scoop headlights on my 64 C after some stone damage to the original glass-covered headlights........At any rate, would one call this a 996SC or SC996....?

Buy a SC roller and start swapping parts back? A good start would be selling the headlights, rear lights, spoiler and decklid. You could get a good chunk of change for those parts and start acquiring the SC parts. Probably come out somewhat even and have a fun, correct SC.
