Love your original shot Randy. I saw my first ST type car in 1977 and fell in lust with it. That car was an inspiration for most of my projects over the years, even without realizing how much it impacted how I saw a proper 911. Well after all these years that very car is now in my hands. Gib, I agree the ST form is the pinnacle of the 911. It carries the lines and flow like no other.
Like best this one ... thanks Randy for posting it :)Quote:

Published an article in Esses on the car and my detective work. The car is in excellent condition throughout (still mostly original) and a thrill to drive. This photo is from the Amelia Island Concours Cars and Coffee Saturday event on the 911's 50th anniversary, as you can see from the Porsche display in the background. We drove six of these early 911 beauties from Knoxville and Atlanta to and from the event (another Esses article). Attachment 337461

FWIW, measure the rear (center of) fender lip to ground before and after. Back end may drop a bit as these are kind of "porky". No big deal. May want to raise the back or drop the front.;)
Porky is an understatement - I can't believe someone isn't building titanium or carbon fiber or unobtanium bases for these - would add performance and better mileage - any leads ? ;)

69 911R replica race car running at road Atlanta
70 t, 3.2.
Nice. Is front bumper metal or fiberglass?
Compliments, that's an absolutely gorgeous car ( Signal Orange, isn't it ? ) with wonderful taste reflected in the choice of many details, I especially like the sensational interior, well done & chosen…….but there is one thing that cries out for attention and improvemnt: the location of the passenger side door-mounted rear-view mirror is all wrong, and I'll wager it is of no practical use whatsoever.
JZG
Hi, front bumper is FG for now. I'm going for a steel non lipped with fog holes when I can get one. But I'm liking the S bumper so might change them out from time to time
Thanks John. Yes, signal orange. The interior is bespoke and I had large plates CNC'd up to emboss the leather to a pattern. Just simple 6mm dots. Turned out really well. The passenger mirror is totally useless and can't be seen from the drivers seat. That's the important mirror here in NZ where we drive on the left so I need to sort out a solution for better visibility, maybe chrome flags or move it. The RH door seems to be original to the car and so do the mounting positions? The car came from California originally.
Nice car, try moving the mirror.
My '67 (Shorty) had a passenger side mirror installed when it was relatively "new". It's ok for the passenger, not so much for me.
I'll never move it because it's a "documented screw up" which was bumped (by the photographer) in this picture. :(
We're in the same boat. Wish mine was usable!Quote:

OK...you guys, I can't help but post a couple of pics of the most famous Martini RSR Recreation accomplished by Mike Moore with the help of Neil Bainbridge in the UK. Keith Martin showed these pics in his thread in April of 2013 from pics taken for Classic Porsche Magazine: http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...ht=martini+RSR
The Martini logo and paint scheme is probably the most famous Porsche factory sponsor of the 70s, and will always be one that will make guys stop and look at any 911 with this look on its flanks. Harvey, I always look and admire your car at Treffen...I love the look!

Here are some pics of the original car as 107 at the 73 Targa, as a factory car #3 used for marketing in 73, and as a factory/Strahle prototype in June of 72. The car was known as the 'Mongrel' because it began life as a factory 72 ST, and was used in prototype development for the 73 RSR program with many iterations of bodywork and engines. The rear flares were always a very distinguishing feature, no doubt hand made for 11x15 Fuchs.Quote:

A long time ago I spoke to a fellow back home(in Sweden)who worked on Porsches during "the good old days"...He mentioned that in the beginning when they needed 911 rear flares of any significance...they started "massaging" rear fenders for VW bugs (turned around and switched sides)..i.e left rears became right rear flares on the 911...not sure how common or actually true that statement is, but the "Targa 107" and the old 1965 (ex Bengt Ekberg)rally car have very distinct round/cupped look to them...I like the look, but then again...I'm a sucker for flares on these cars anyway.../Lars...

Just brought 451 back home yesterday after a though detail and some much needed sorting by our favorite Porsche whisperer, Larry Marzano near Chicago. I have been a bad boy and let the car sit for far too long, so this was in preparation for a road trip this week with the MW gang. Really looking forward to the trip. :)
Finally had the correct size tires mounted. Looks so much better now.

Oh yeah!! Get that bad boy back on the road. Looks great B. I am sure Larry whispered his wonderful magic on that beautiful car. Wish I could fly wing with you guys to BR. Love the Avons - perfect profile.
Brian,
Absolutely stunning, enjoy!
Phil
Great to see it back in use, looking good. See you in a few days.
Looks great. Are the tires 185/70 and 215/60?
Rich
Im interrested in wheel and tire size also.
Brian,
451 looks great, glad to see it's getting out ! Have a great time @ Bergrennen.
Thanks guys for the compliments.:) I am really fired up about the way it looks and drives. The odometer reads 10,000 KM exactly, seems like a good # to start with for the trip.
Scott, you will be missed greatly! A tinge of sadness you won't be along. Hope to see you later this Fall.
Safe travels Bob for you and the others from the great state of TX.
Yes guys, the tires are 185/70 and 215/60 Avon CR6ZZ on 7 and 8"X15" wheels. The car was delivered to the first Swiss owner on 6" and 7" but he quickly moved the rear wheels forward and put 8" on the rear.

This is the start of the race. Lead all laps for the win. Then on cool down lap the engine blew up.Attachment 395262
And they did a photo shoot on main straight. So I took a few selfies. I'll post the pro pics when I get a copy.

Nice work Clarke... How many hours on the hurt engine?
Less than 10
Hi Everyone,
New to the registry but long time troller.
Our baby is a 71 911T in the hot country of Taiwan. Can't get enough of driving with the roof open since the weather has finally dropped below 90*. Just finished a new exhaust for it and sounds great, wife isn't too happy though as my weekends are now filled cruising through the mountains
Thanks everyone for such an awesome place to hang out

Welcome!
Love the direct exhaust on the car.
Thanks for sharing
Glad it wasn't damaged by the typhoons.
Would love to hear that exhaust! :)
I would love to put that exhaust on my car, but I need my heater
