hey Yetibone, your car looks great, well done!
those are early aluminium rear trailing arms, right? and Boxster wheels? The offset on those rear wheels is ET50mm right? How much wider than stock are the rear wings (fenders) you have on? thanks and best of luck with the finish

I have 38mm spacers, and the fenders are 76mm wider on each side. With the late 951 arms, you would have very close to the same look, without the spacers.

Wheels would have been 1.5" ('bout 76mm) too far in under those CCC rear fenders. I wanted the car wider at both ends. I really wanted it 3" total in front, and 6" total in the rear, but Had to settle for 4" wider in front because CCC didn't make a 1.5" wider front fender.
Now I need about 7/8" (22mm) front spacers to make me happy.

It's been awfully long since I'd posted anything about my car. I'd been working on it during the evenings and weekends that I could, but haven't actually posted anything about it since there's been no real news to report. Over the holidays I've had enough time to really work on it, so I re-assembled the engine after replacing the pick-up tube, and the bearings, installed it in the car, made some corrections to how the engine sat in the compartment, and a few minutes ago, drove it (without a windshield
 ) out to the pavement to break the rings in.What a drive.  First time I've driven it...I wish I had a windshield so I could drive it some more. I'll post pics after I paint the back bumper, and install the windshield.

Sweet. Good to hear it is on the road. I have some goggles I can send up so you can give it a good thrashing.
