Default Another Porsche for the drag race circuit?

Eddie Bello's got his white car up and running... here's another one soon to join in the mix... we need to see more!!! lol Here's a recent project we recently completed at the shop. This is the car when it arrived at the shop. It's a 1997 Porsche 993. I already posted this in the Welding forum but figured it pertains to this forum as well.







Here is some progress pictures.










Here is some of the finished product.





Front lower passenger hoodpin.



Out of the way and it wont scratch anything...













Bottom Water tank mount.

That is a hardcore individual. Its got to take big bucks to take a Porsche apart like that and put it back together with such serious fab work.

Nice work by NRG Tech
