Yeah you built a good car so would have been a shame to strip it back down.
Whale tail going is the right choice. Can't wait to see this crack on. Do love a red early Porsche though

Why buy a car that is an unknown factor, when you already have one anyway that you know is good?

Engine repairs aren't so bad if you can do it yourself, very simple engines.

Of course it's just like any other engine. However for resale it would need documentation and price of parts are high

Well after 2.5hrs of looking over the car and test driving it (I think the owner now hates me) it's mine. And I must say I'm over the moon. Even the whale tail is growing on me.

What's to say the grey one won't break down?
Plus in selling it and buying another I have made a fair amount of ££££'s

Was that spoiler and option on the 964 or has it been modified? I thought 964's had electric spoilers and G's had whale tails?
