Ace-Garageguy Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Porsche 550 Spyder replica (Beck). Soon anyway...currently putting the engine back together. After that one, there's an '86 MR2, getting headers, a light flywheel, dual Dellorto side-draft 2bbls and a 2-inch lowering job, with about 400 pounds taken out. Then to finish the '74 Porsche 911 Targa-based, 911 Speedster widebody semi-replica (chopped windshield and turtledeck). Steel 930 flares, Weber 40IDA-3 carbs, headers and again, as much weight taken out as possible, and as low as possible. The '86 Jag XJ-6 is running again, but an iron LS engine is starting to look pretty good for a swap. Already did a 700R4 gearbox, and it made a world of difference. Both GM trucks are still "resting". Edited July 20, 2014 by Ace-Garageguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To do list: - Build engine - Custom interior - Custom spoilers and bodywork - Rebuild just about everything - Paint and powdercoating Lots of work but definitely worth it '37 Ford Pickup- S10 frame with built 4.3L, extended cab, custom bed and interior '79 Jeep J10- long term project, going to have 35's, coilover suspension, built 360 V8, possibly extended cab and shortened bed Edited July 20, 2014 by 91blaze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roundthirteen Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Love Corvairs, screw Nader! My grandfather had a Corvair wagon, and last year a girl had a turbo spyder at the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
