Ill add a heart beat to it. Its so simple it could
cause a heart attack.. Ha ha - ha I used a pun to
answer my own question. Anyway this will be a trick
maneuver long and drawn out - ha another hint to my pun.
I also will build a front splitter, hatch latches, built motor bearings rings
pp ed head cam oil cooler header decked block shop honed block.
pp ed head will get valve work while getting a straight edge piston
side powered by a msd with 8mm wires I'm just running later pistons
in a stock msd ignited motor now well with a dial cam sprocket &
Weber single throat TB with no header yet ... since my last one cracked
so bad it needs a tube replaced or maybe Ill get brave and
toss that toasted header to the dump. So did anyone get my pun
it'll include 3 new colors besides the yell-er and blue that will be the same. _________________ 1979 porsche 924 Na

Good to be Welcome fellas.
No flosho I'm surprised you didn't pick the Porsche flag colors though
No my choice is debatable but why, white for the center line
purple for the top and orange for the bottom line.. Mostly it'll
be a masking job.. using thin and thick paint masking entailing
razer blade cut rounded corners against straight lines in a certain configuration.. hints given with my puns.
Each line made 1/2"to an 1" I'm needing design help as far
as giving the lines some classy curves.
I wantt to look good so choosing the right design is
crucial without looking stupid. That's all Ill say so Ill design
my heartbeat with the right phi. Hey there's another pun.
Ha ha ha - ha ha..well time to go play in traffic.
who can guess the answer to my pun.. Everyone has more time
*NOTE : Do a search on pun if you don't remember what one is. _________________ 1979 porsche 924 Na

yea forget the purple the strip will be white in the center &
bright red on top & a bright orange on the bottem.
Course the blue will have to be brought down
to just below the door handles. _________________ 1979 porsche 924 Na

yes add to the recipe ...
it will be cool I'm gonna reproduce an actual EKG strip
to the correct scaled size add curves 'no sharp angles' &
then stretch it one way or
another. Maybe having one a thicker colored line than
the other two. I want it all a custom front splitter made
of thin laminated ply on screwed to the top of some light gauge
steel offset angle covered with a piece of colored laminate like counter top stuff..
I'm gonna custom cut clips or brackets
in between the splitter and front valance. _________________ 1979 porsche 924 Na

Ive been building then hopefully onto one of there high rise projects for the rest of the year..
anyway Ill be working at night from 5pm to - 1 am.
I guess its a good thing though Ive never framed or hung drywall or built grid ceilings at night.

Im back to working the 6:30 am to 3pm shift at work
Im also on a highrise project in portland. So things
are exciting in my world .. Ill see if I can make a
drawing of my grand paint design.
Im gonna pattern the splitter after this one and put a oil
cooler behind a screen like that.
First Ill lower the blue from this .... to.
To something like this (lowered blue)... then

Worked on my splitter this last weekend before
I left for a week long steel framing class .. The
splitter still needs to be adjusted on the right side
as its a lil low. .. . So Im up here by the airport
for a week staying in a sleep inn attending my
school. Ill show more work on the splitter
when I get home ... my car at home. This
way I think I could fit some foglites right under
the 944 foglites.

Splitter looks excellent, looking forward to pictures of the finished product.
I appologize if this has already been discussed, but where are your door handles? Do you have a push-buttom set up to pop them open? _________________ 1977 Porsche 924 |
