    The first thing that goes through my mind is:

    "Maybe the guy would do volunteer work for me on original restorations since he has so much spare time on his hands?"


    To each his own but this is what happens when an industrious meth addict of means channels his hallucinations toward a car.

    "No expense spared"... it just gets worse... or better, depending on your sense of humour!!!

    Here we have a beautiful rotisserie restored Porsche. What started out as a 1976 912E, now no longer shares much similarities to the factory delivered car. This car has been handsomely renovated into a one of a kind, uncompromising street machine that screams Porsche! Attention to detail is apparent in every aspect of the build. No expense was spared. The car runs and pulls strong through all five gears via the fully rebuilt 2.7L 911 6 cylinder engine which delivers the power crisp and smoothly. The exhaust boasts an aggressive note as you run through the gears but is tamed at lower rpm's .

    This amazing Porsche needs nothing but a new home. A truly well thought out and executed build which focused on precision, detail and quality. You will not be disappointed.

    Engine:
    Rebuilt 1976 2.7. New gaskets, piston rings, warm up regulator, Carrera chain tensioner kit, fuel injectors, fuel pump, valve guides, heads redone, fuel distributor, head studs, alternator, fuel lines, air hoses, filters, stainless steel headers, M&K Sport Exhaust. New transmission and motor mounts.

    Suspension:
    EVERYTHING was completely torn down, stripped, and refinished. Bilstein HD strut inserts and rear shocks. New bushings front to back. New inner and outer wheel bearings, wheel studs, braided brake lines, fully rebuilt 911 calipers and cross drilled rotors. Original 16X6 Fuchs all the way around finished in Albert Blue.

    Exterior:
    The body was stripped down to bare metal, both inside and outside. Sunroof was deleted. Te rear deck lid is a factory unit with the actual "duck tail" from a fiberglass lid, which was cut down about two inches to give it a lower, sleeker, more aerodynamic look. It was then finished with sharper edges that resulted in a better fit than the original. Finished in Gulf Blue and Gulf Orange. The Entire body was painted (Interior, bottom, wheel wells, trunk and engine bay). All brand new OEM body seals were used. The headlights and rear lights are also new.
    Interior:
    Fully custom interior with a refinished dashboard, BMW E30 seats finished in leather with custom tailored (you won't find this material in any other car interior) inserts. Berber style carpet, with the edges finished in the same material as the seat inserts. Carpet allows for exposed areas to highlight the finished interior. Seat insert material is also on the Momo Prototipo horn button, the ashtray trim, rear straps to hold down custom made travel bag finished in the same material, as well as the RS style door pulls. Radio delete. Custom made rear seat delete/storage modeled after the factory units. Roll bar finished in Gulf Orange. Anything else not mentioned in the interior is brand new.

    Trunk:
    Custom made cover, in the same material as the seat inserts, with leather straps and a separate area for storage. Inside the storage area there's a picnic blanket in the same material. Also installed is a new Centerfill fuel tank.

    This is what happens when good money is spent bad.

    Being in Miami, id say a marine canvas shop got their hands on the interior job. Either that or they sacrificed patio furniture for the material.
