Thank you! It was absolute torture to get a complete set of 5! Heres a set of cookies on my friends daily driver '67. Not old school cal look, but unique in its own right. I keep telling him to swap the 7" fronts for some 6" and ditch the 195/50s for some 185/60s. Someday...

The '67 is unfortunately no where near completion! Ive got too many irons in the fire, my friend. But it will be black, have lots of gold pinstriping, a pile of Race Trim, Treuhaft, and EMPI Parts, and run 11s naturally aspirated- on pump gas Smiley

Here is my steering wheel, also Cosmic. The ashtray is now filled in as well. A custom panel I fabbed for where the washer and brake resiviors used to reside. My removeable (and smoothed) rear apron with center exhaust outlet (collector will pass thru it once the trans raise is installed), it is now finished. And an old picture showing the glass fiber hood with gauge panel resting on the roof. Its a long ways off, thats for sure!

Of course I am! The decklid is also glass fiber- a vintage "scooped" '67 version I am mounting to the stock hinges.

 Here is some of mine.  The BRM's are currently on my car.  The FF 5 spoke has some of the new flat caps from Canada , they are very cool.. The Fuchs is a 14" & they are on my 77 westy, they are painted around the lugs like the 67 911 Fuchs. Wheels are fun to mess around with, they can totally change the car.  Later   Bill

I personally like the porsche wheels on Karstens (DFL) 67 bug, those are
Remotec-wheels in 6Jx15 (I know they are also available in 4x130 patern)
I dont know, they just fit the period..
I also like the gasburners.

yes, bahama blue, but no narrowed beam. The wheels stick out a bit but I am not sure I want to make that kind of permanent alteration.

the fronts roll on original spec 155s, and whilst I havent measured it, it is probably around an inch. Sadly my car isnt as clean as the photos suggest, but I dont care, I still love it - I have had it 15 years and counting...

yes, it is a nice shade, it was really nice when it was first painted, but years out in the british winter took its toll whilst I built my old cabrio, it lives in the garage now  Smiley You will have to post some pics when yours is painted!
