Hi ChevyThunder !

Thanks for the support and the kind words of encouragement. I can only hope my Porsche brethren can appreciate my project. I have been a member of the 356 Registery for over 15 years and really dig the 356/911 cars and all the history of the Porsche racing and engineering. I love the efficiency of the German design and how the car performs and handles with only 100 hp. I can totally understand the heritage and a persons wanting to do a spot-on restoration of these cars because they are soo cool. I guess I'll just have to get over it if they can't accept it.... because I wanted to do something different while still showing what a great design the car was/is.

I grew up with 340 6 pack darts, a 440 mag 69 dart, 351c Fairlane, 67 vette, - etc, good old america HP and I felt it would be fun (driving and engineering) a hybrid. If I'm wrong - it will still be a fun car for me.

Now you sir have way too many cool cars and are having far to much fun with them !!! And I really dig the purple flames - well done ! Let's drop an LS7 in that baby and really rock the boat !

Jim, Another very jealous boat rocker.
