This is some working on the LP640 upgraded rockers. I had to take the OEM early Murci oil cooler and turn it 180 Deg so it fit into the LP640 scoop.

This is the door I ended up getting while I was in Cali, it was bent in the front and ended up being an easier fix, so I ended up using a piece of the outer door skin off the old door to fit it..

Next I purchased a crashed door from Mr. Watson and planned on fixing it, worked out pretty good until I scratched it and went another direction when i found a better door in California when I visited. Ill post these pictures, might help somebody when they design there doors.

I started off by cutting and straigtening out the bent metal on the back of the door and adding the new metal.

Well after 9 months of no posting time resurrect my build thread and give some updates. I haven't got as far as I had hoped since I had to nearly finish my replica build and deliver it earlier this year. Right now the car still is not running due to needing to order a replacement key fob that mates to my Murci Vin # it takes 3 weeks to get from Italy. right now soon as I turn the key on the alarm goes off and shuts power down to the GSM (which runs everything).

I'll start off with pictures switching the cars peddles over from E-Gear to manual since I will be using the Porsche Transaxle & removing the paddles from the column… next few pictures are removing the factory dry sump oil system and interior pictures after everything is complete inside.
