1973 Carrera RS. Color-coordinated Fuchs, Carrera script and the ducktail - I dig the ducktails. There weren't many made, so hoarding might prove difficult.

(Visual) Familiarity breeds contempt, eh? Too much Aston pr0n for you.

Let's bring this back to automotive enthusiasts for moment from, erm, wherever it is. Driving a powerful front engine, rear drive car with a SWB will occasionally give rise to the "pucker factor". In broad terms, the pucker factor is the involuntary buttockular reaction to trailing throttle oversteer. In other…

I had a fleeting thought that the brackets might complicate things. Glad you got through it and thanks for the tip. I like the phone dials on the F-R cars (not so much on the 928) as well, just not on the 911.

Thanks for the approval, much appreciated. I got the 14# from rennlist. There's a guy that made a chart of all the Porsche wheels, weights, dimensions, mfg process. It's here, but I don't know if I can post links yet [[members.rennlist.com]

Anyway, in order to drive The Billywagon, one had to perform The Wagonwalk. The Wagonwalk entailed, umm, walking on the wagon. One had to complete a full lap of…

Toss up for me between the '63 250 GTO and the 288, but that's not a unfun debate to be having.

My old '82 SC had the Fuchs - loved those wheels. One of the coolest things was how freakin' light the lug nuts were, as I'm sure hoonthatsc can attest. Overall, the forged wheels I think were something like 50% lighter than the cast faux-Fuchs iirc.
