Rocking full reds at the back
Future plans include:
- Lowering the front suspension a spline or two, just to get the nose level.
- Painting the Rostyles satin black
- Get some carpeting in.
- Put a Porsche steering wheel in
- Fitting a roof rack
- Fitting a Type 1 alternator (saw an old post by IMPI on the STF regarding this)
Friend of mine from the states has offered to send some goodies for the car over, so after the car is painted later this year, it will be sporting some cool accessories

So when can we actually expect some progress, not just the moving around the garage?

Dutch this is not my project - and it isn't a full blown project. Just a car that can be driven and enjoyed

I am contemplating the arctic chill of those full reds.
Buff the chrome, paint the rosty's and the car will be equally devoid of heat.

Well the actual owner of the car is too lazy to paint the wheels and insists that I should do it

Not touching anything else on the car until my fasty is done...

Ratback is for sale.
Is licensed in my name and has a roadworthy.
It runs fine, drove it as a daily for 3 months and took it to quite a few shows in that time.
Factory interior is still very nice and clean. Pan is solid. From the pictures, obviously it can be seen that the car needs bodywork, else keep it as it is and rock it as a ratty with some lowering and decal work....
Motor sounds okay, although there is some piston slap.
Looking at R8k.
PM me.
