Ultimate ST thread

This is one of my favorite ST photos, taken by J. Watermulder, showing an ST at the limit...opposite lock full throttle, trying to power through oversteer as the hill ahead looms. I think it is a more recent photo, not period...but it is a great shot.

Rugen is known for making great 911 race engines off older flavour.

Thanks for the Stimming.de and Rugen identifications. I had some of their pics saved awhile back but lost them. I like what these guys are doing to build period looking competition cars. Neat!

For the last few years these great and unique 'just-pre-aero' race cars have been the apple of the Early 911 enthusiasts eye both hear and the world over. This last month has been the proof with no less then two UK publications running articles on clones...
- GT Porsche - Orange ST clone by Tuthill
- 911 & Porsche World - Turquoise ST clone by Nick Moss

And now I just received a publication from our friend Nic Roveda (former owner of the 'rally flared silver '73S) from a family visit to Italy. This from the Italian GRACE Classic & Sport Cars, a great 8 page article on the real '71 2.2 Waldegaard RAC ST restored by Jim Avis.

..... man I wish I could read Italian


Something to consider:

With all this I've come to question if WE, the Early 911 community, are not having a substantial influence on the greater 911 and historic sports car culture as to what there is to read and what to spend their 'news stand' money on .............. ;)

.... and so it goes

FYI: the green "sun-roof" ST, #1014, is now available for sale at Roock Motorsport in Germany.

Featured by Excellence in their November 2008 issue, the car has been converted back to its narrow-body ex-works configuration in the mean time.

Must be a lot of power to be fed through 6" rear wheels...

Hey Chuck, are there any closeups of that front skid plate. That looks very close to the one I made for my car but I'm still debating on how/where to mount it to .... thanks!

No, they only have one photo of each car. I have already contacted them because I was interested in more pics - and the rear wings of the green ST. :)

But to no avail yet... :(

The grey car is freshly built and shall cost Euro 180k which I feel is lots of money for a replica - even though it might be what parts and labor cost.

There is another very nice ST replica here:

My car is 'themed' around the narrow body ST, and I would like to get more information on the narrow body ST - in particular lots of pictures please.
