What a work of art this 507 is. There are very few people in this world I believe that can pull this off with the tools/equipment that Dave worked with. Blows my mind every time I see pictures of it.

You guys are awesome! Thank you! Final walk around with a pencil and tape to circle any imperfections I see prior to color. More to come!!

Cheers
Dave

Well, that's a 502 motor. The 507's was a little different and man, did you see the cracks in that thing? Yikes! Nothing a little JB Weld can't fix!

Sadly, on this day in 1977, Elvis passed away. Fittingly though, my 507 is painted in the same color as his, Federweiss!

And a few of Elvis taking delivery of his used 507! these first three are him at the dealer.

These next three are him on the base

Name: IMG_6065.jpeg Views: 521 Size: 51.0 KB

Name: IMG_6062.jpeg Views: 505 Size: 48.8 KB

This bottom one shows it after he painted it “Fire Engine Red” which was actually a Porsche color at the time.

Look at the third picture. Did you see the ripples and waves in the rocker panel and the door? Dave I bet the fit and finish on yours is much better than the originals.
