Always wanted one, was amazing when one was offered to me and it's been under wraps for a few months now. Yes it's a Fleetline, no I don't give a monkeys what you think, so shut it about that aspect.
Thankfully this doesn't have much rust at all, which is a good start. The bits that are rusted have been sorted with some lovely metal from Karl at Autocraft in the UK
I've also managed to grab some Porsche Teledials, Safari Window's and other goodies, which will eventually make their way onto the SC.
So, plans:
Body:
Fix all rust, then i'll drive up to Jozi and grab it. Plan then is for it to be sandblasted and then me doing all the prep work required for paint. I'm giving myself 10 weeks for prep alone.
Paint will most likely be along the lines of:
Interior:
I'm having a full bench made up with a lovely cow hide purchased in the Natal Midlands.
Yes, the seat will be hide, booya!. Other than that, the dash will remain totally standard, but the air vent will have an oil temp, pressure and fuel gauge in it. Sound will be installed but not sure how, most likely just an iPhone jack going into an amp somewhere.
Running gear:
Buggered'd box, SA setup and disc's at the front. Toying with the idea of going down the route of a 944 conversion at the front, all depending on availability of parts. Narrowed front beam (4")
Engine:
Impi 1776 all the way. Dual carbs, nice cam, an IMPI special.
Wheels:
Porsche Teledials (black) with some decent rubber
I'll also be having some sign writing added to the doors, but more to come on that later.
Should be a good project, I'm giving myself until Nov to get this 100% ready.
