Doing it just for giggles.

I'm a massive WRC fan, always loved the S7/8 cars from the 2001/2002 era so why not build one.
Totally and completely unique in its design and setup.
I want a 911 but I'm not finished with this yet.

Absolutely. the '01 season was incredible, sadly I never got to go to the WRC back then, just had to watch it on the telly instead. I really did miss the golden era of the WRC.

Such a great shame that the two men responsible for making that season so great are no longer with us. :weary:

Not a fill in job. However when genuine active competition cars come in for repair then they take priority as they will be due out on stage.
So in those cases mine has to wait and I respect that.
Fully understand mate.

It drives me mad if i can't drive mine for a month or two....😂

Oh if theirs any bits you decide to sell that may suit me then please give my a pm mate. :smiley:

MOAR!!!!!!

99% of the metal fabrication done now on her rear flares and tubs. Next job will be snagging and rear bumper alignment before laying up the rear doors.

Cheeky mock up using an S9 rear door looks promising.
Daves now got the painstaking task of making the rear doors flares & returns from scratch, good job he's not bad at the metal lark.
Can't use the doors he already made as the S9 onwards used wagon rear doors with a higher latched strike pin. This allowed for larger wheel clearance when the rear wheels were bought even further forward on the S9 onwards. As it is the S7/8 brings them further 15mm to standard.

Hope it's not a case of ambition, then looking back at the car with a beer and thinking "I didn't think this through" :smiley:
Was such a sorted car even to start with!

Wasn't he getting married or something?. He may be on a looooong holiday. Hopefully he's still building it. Be a shame to stop

He is married and I hear through the grape vine that he now owns a green Porsche GT4?

Yes mate it was a beast, 550hp and bags of torque. It was an epic road car, problem is now it maybe has gone to far as a road car and it would also be a bloody expensive one too.
