Porsche restoration project for your serious consideration:

I bring you this from another forum - (subject: I bought my 9 year old a Porsche 911)

It sounds a lot cooler than what it is. It is a 1990 964 model that needs some tlc. I think this will be great she and I working on the weekends to build what will become her ultimate expression of teenaged freedom. (Somewhat daddy is an electrical engineer the car will be wired) I also liked the porsche because of the limited room in the back seats. Ive been in a few of those on late nights. This will be frame off reconstruction to include powdered coating on suspension pieces and frame and body coated with protective polymers to ensure a long time of driving. I am even thinking about building my own custom fuel injection system based of off a thin client with wireless tracking, fuel mixing, and top velocities for the device. It will have the ability to show me what road she is on and how fast she drove on it. It will also measure gs in gos, stops, and turns. I have an Indian friend writing the code for it now. It will also be able to detect problems and send me a msg to my phone for g level. post gs, temp, and oil pressures, So, I can tell her to turn the car off. I could even do it in an emergency. In a car jacking I could turn the car off myself with no help from agencies. I think this would be a perfect first driver for a teenage girl. I also think the next seven years will give us lots of time getting to know each other in a stress free environment. She has already talked about becoming a mechanical engineer. How big of a lead would she have by already have been doing it for the past few years. It would look good on a job resume to for a job at porsche. She is smart and beautiful. Girls like that get jobs quick in places like that. Has anyone else done a complete project like that with their kids? I'm hoping this will be fun. She sits in the car now and pretends to drive.



>>> I began by trying to explain that we don't normally use the term "frame-off restoration" on a unit body car...got nowhere...
