Puma with a Porsche nose, sounds very interesting, post up some pics please..

Here are a few pics. Main work done, now the final push.

Can somebody now post a "normal" Puma pic as I don't see any difference.

World of difference on the front. Will try get a pic of my brothers puma to show you. Cant now though.

Standard Puma nose with the two small chrome bumpers

looks more alfa spider front end to me.

those Pumas remind me a lot at the old Datsun 280z's

Hi w24

Any further progress and pics. My car's nose is similar. Also has a full "bumper" like the GTi and it looks like golf lights that you have.

Hi the first Pumas sporting the NOSE was built in 1966 which is the same time as the Alfa spider and predates the Datsun by a few years. I have not found any conversion to actually enhance the look of the Puma. Why mess with perfection? but then I am seriously biased in favour of the car having owned two of them and drove in one the first time in 1973
