    wide body Sepia pics ?

    I'm a LONG way off ( especially since I haven't even started on it ) but as we all do, I am constantly building the car in my noggin. I had a non Porsche color picked out for my RSR bodied T, but something way back in some dark recess of my medulla oblongata I keep thinking about keeping it Sepia. I can't find any pics of a RSR or wide bodied Sepia car even though 2 people have told me they have seen at least one. As horrible as Sepia is I'm picturing it actually looking good on a wide body with satin black decals.

    SOOOOooooo Does anyone have a pic of a Sepia RSR ?

    Not an RSR per se, but a wide bodied back in the day Sepia hot rod

    Thumbs up

    This (I'm pretty sure) one owner sepia/tan 72S was 'big bodied' back in the day and still go'n strong....

    He's slowly bringing the look back from the early '80's

    It used to also have a IROC tail... He has since straighten out the look of those real wheels.....


    Very nice guy who drives the thing really hard.........

    Not a RSR but RS flares done back in the 80s. Today, the car has a bit of a well worn look and so does it's owner.

    Damn...I'm kinda liking it. Particularly the one Jim posted. The color is a little lighter vs. the one Chuck posted which IMHO helps

    IMO sepia brown in the 70ies used to be what was today is black. It was seen as elegant.
    Black cars back then were often reserved/used for Presidential/gouverment limousines as well as for hearses.

    In the thread: 1973 Porsche Parade in Monterey Photos, post #1, third picture is a Sepia RSR, looks like a real one. Maybe Admin can move the picture here as I'm ill equipped. Gled
