This absolutely stunning Porsche was built by one of the most knowledgeable and passionate enthusiasts around. The donor car was an accident free, rust free '81 SC Coupe.
The entire car was stripped of every removable part. Thatincludeswiring, glass, doors, fenders, gas tank, all suspension, transmission, engine and the complete interior. Please check out all the pictures carefully to examine theperfectionof this incredible build! Notice that most of the bolts, nuts and washers have been yellow zink plated to duplicate the ones used by the factory. The new door panels had the smooth vinyl removed so that the basketweave pattern would match the seats. Incredible attention to detail!
The "hottest" segment of the air cooled Porsche market is the RS/ST Tribute cars, also known as "Outlaws", "Hot Rods" and "R" Gruppes! Several builders are charging $300,000 to $600,000 with back logs of three years. This car is every bit as exciting as their cars at a fraction of the prices. This car is now like an ST. It has the ST front bumper and steel rear decklid. It comes with a painted "Ducktail" rear wing and a painted front "RS" spoiler as used on a '73 RS. It would be a very handsome "RS" Tribute with the addition of "Carrera" side stripes as on the "RS's.
This is the perfect vehicle in which to attend the many "Cars and Coffee's" that take place around the country. It surely would be the "Star" of each event!
