Fugly - a poor man's 911 build thread

[roca1976]

Crikey there won't many panels left by the end, frunk and doors ?

[RJ5560]

I think there is a hint of DB10 in the front there. And maybe Honda Acura NSX 1st gen in the rear. You have to really squint at the screen however ......

The original engine lid is hidden in there somewhere I’m told. I really should have contacted my local Porsche Club GB rep to see if they’d like it on their stand at the next big show.

Tomato] the nice people at Pro9 Porsche that did the Gulf job have been warned it's coming and they are not keen. This must be a good sign. l said:

Mines currently just being finished by pro 9. Good bunch of guys. You might of seen mine there?

[Tomato]

Great guys, which is yours?

[rufusgti]

Great project, really hope you decide to go to original colour. What sort of money did it cost to get it over. Looks a great project to me, better than starting with a rust bucket.

Looks BMW Z8 to me, at the front anyway.

I’m torn, a fabulous original colour but thought Integrale Evo Lord Blue to match a 3 door Range Rover I’m doing...or maybe do the 3 door RR in Arrow Blue too....

[Tomato]

Arrow Blue would look good with black Pasha

[LaurasOtherHalf]

I had pascha in my 3.0SC, it always photographs way lairy than it is in real life (unless in 928 full pascha trim spec!).

[Unknown_User]

Fabulous project and arrow Blue gets my vote.

Following with interest.

Great color for a 3 door Range

I can't wait to see this thread play out, that Arrow Blue car looks bloody marvellous. Please tell me that fugly will be rescued and taken back to something that looks that beautiful!

The gulf blue wide body with no interior. Will do a full build thread once I collect it.

Bought two correct front seats...£250. Fleabay special - thanks Rob. They will need trimming: pashing

[Tomato]

Tried to buy a couple of used Momo Prototipo Singer Steering wheels from various sites. It appears despite no buy it now people don’t wait until the auction ends...well their loss. Why do sellers think someone wants to end the auction early? In a hurry to get a steering wheel and can’t wait two days?? Now forced to buy one from a factory in China. New. £45 delivered seems very well made

[Tomato]

Could be a first for me on a project, someone sniffing around the Recaro front seats for £300....less £250 for the Porsche seats...less £45 for the Momo...that's £5 the right way.....I'm UP....I'm in profit But not for much long I feel...

[Glassman]

[rufusgti]

How did you get the steering wheel for £40......

[80sMatchbox]

It looks related to a Barcheta.
