What do you mean wannabe? That's Robs '69 hot rod that started it all.

Does a 'hot rod' a Singer make?
T-bars . . . no coil-overs --- or 964 chassis . . .
No 3.6 . . . or 3.8 . . . . or 4.0, now . . . . . . . and definitely no Cosworth
Any CF?
If anything? ---- the orange car is why Mr Dickinson went on to make Singers . . .
Same builder, granted . . .
. . . but the same car?
..
Singer engines aren't Cosworth, all are made exclusively by Ed Pink racing engines
And Singer price is $525k (ask me how I know...)
'. . . It started with the Porsche 964-based 3.6-liter, which eventually evolved into its Cosworth-developed 3.8. But for its latest build, Singer tapped Ed Pink Racing in North Hollywood to blow it out to an even 4 liters, with peak power delivered at 7,200 rpm and 315 lb-ft of twist at 6,000 revs. The pistons are custom Mahle bits, the crankshaft is from Pankl, with Carillo rods, reworked cylinder heads and a modified GT3 intake plenum by Jenvey . . .'

wannabe implies that it's trying unsuccessfully to be a Singer, but it's not trying to do that. Rob's kept it the way it was before Singers existed since he doesn't need to build it into one.

Yep... The '69 came way before and started it all.... Rob was driving that car up in the hills (and all over the place) over 10 years ago... ask me how I know....
Here's a couple Lisa (from Australia) took from '08.. the one year the the Sunday Swap (after the Lit Fair) was in Costa Mesa... rain, then sun
