I know! Be the first to backdate it to an IB!!!

 

You'll be the pioneer of a new craze!

haha I've looked into this multiple times.

I really like this idea but there is certainly nothing out there about backdating to IB.

 

Just going to have to save up (and up and up and up), for another.

As have I, in fact it was what I was originally looking to do with what became the RS4. 

 

There are a handful around, mainly RS and RSR clones

 

Exhibit A: C4-based 74 3.0 RS rep

Always an RS or RSR clone, never a NB IB.

 

That's an impressive build though.

 

Plenty of people being laughed at on RL and Pelican for suggesting the IB backdate.

except for all the IBs that were forward dated to 964 in the 90s that are now being put back to IB (re-backdated?)   :lol:

haha yes very true.

It's fascinating to watch the trends.

but really these are just reproductions? Zero creativity in that.

Whilst everyone is mimicking Singer (and largely failing on quality and attention to detail)at least he chose to blend a few different different eras and throw in his own spin.

Looks like it has Safari rally ride height. Prefer the other blue one in the background.

Its not an IB backdate unless it has bellows and a sharking.

If looking for inspiration might I suggest RUF CTR. A lot of people think they are 964 or 930 based but they are in fact a humble 3.2. The bumpers are subtle. Couple with the 964 tail and some wide arches and something a bit different. Also go for a rich interior mixing nice leather with modern materials and might be a nice result.
