I saw a full build on here of a 70 something porsche with full 996 fiberglass body can anyone link me to it? i search but came up with nothing

-pete

 

A friend of mine puts 996 fronts on 993,s all the time .But to put a 996 front end on a 911s is a ton of work.As far as i know there in not a kit.The guy i know uses all stock porsche parts and makes all the other parts himself.
There is a huge Porsche shop in Monclair,California called 911 design.I make his headers and turbo manifolds for all the race cars that he services.Anyway he does that kind of stuff all the time.Ask for Loren.

 

we just got done putting a full fiberglass 996 body on an older 70s 911 chassis

however, due to the fact that i no longer work there, i dont have pics

The thing about a glass kit is its to car kitish.It looks and feels so much better done with Real metal Porsche parts.A little more spendy but worth it.

 

do they look newer substantially or can you tell they are still old looking at them?
