Almost everything in their advert is wrong. More importantly, who colour-matched the front PU?

Just spotted this in the classifieds

Air-cooled, with modern conveniences. Collectable, but usable. Lovely 'narrow bodied' N/A, manual, Coupe, and love the C4 chassis on the 993, and sweet colour.
Lovely, but 48k? Wowcher.

That does look like a classy 993.

Not badly priced in the current market - especially compared to some of the absurdly price 3.2s. Agree, front pu looks a little off colour.

I knew JBL fairly well as he was local to me and watched his conversion with envy back in the day, sad times! I wonder where his car is now? My local specialist(Northway) are the same guys that did his conversion and they are planning to do the same with a tt lump they have so I've been chatting to them about various bits and bobs.

Heres the rennlist thread for where I'm up to so far:
http://rennlist.com/forums/964-forum/812225-new-pr...
I saw his car at Malton must have been around 18-20 months ago.
I was in the market and rang them, but they never got back to me.
Shortly after, the car was removed from sale so dont know where it ended up.

Your build thread looks good!
Get her back together and drop it in.
Imagine the back of you car, sounding like this, and spitting flame http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kn082Gf18L0

Can't break my love affair with the aircooled 911. Just bought a 964 as a daily driver. Bye bye GT4.

Ha! Nope, just bored with being prudent. Life is too short Old Chap. It's not an RS just a lovely C2 in good order in Guards red. Some RS calipers, discs, drop links and bars, some lightweight carpets and door cars, proper dampers and what a lovely thing to mince about in every day. Staff don't ask for a pay rise and customers don't ask for a price reduction if you turn up in something quirky.

Absolutely Old Chap! Can't wait. Too many little urksome twerps sitting in ever bigger design comitties doing thier best to remove the driver from being a part of the driving experience these days. Bring back the days of Autocrat owners - Enzo, Colin Chapman, Dr F. Porsche etc..

Anyway, I'm voting with my bum.. What a horrible thought I hear you all say.

Reds a bh. The two red Porsches I have owned had about 6 slightly different shades each!

Red can be a bh under fluorescent lamps.
How stunning is that profile! And people ask why 964's are so appreatiated?
