edgy Posted 6July, 2016 Report Share Posted 6July, 2016 Ok, I've got your attention. What is your ultimate type 901 build? Meaning you can cherry pick ANY parts that are pre 73, but the whole car is built out of period parts, you can of course use a brake pad to fit the period correct brake caliber in a modern composition, but it rules out later boxster brakes etc. Template: Donor Body: Motor: Fuel delivery/induction: Transmission: Brakes: Suspension: Wheels:Interior: Body/Aero mods: Electrical: Other: I'm interested to hear what you would chose.

Pauly Posted 6July, 2016 Report Share Posted 6July, 2016 I'm going to break a few rules because I love 901s but dont know much about what motor/box/suspension/ ect ect is in what ect. Donor Body: Any - hardtop. WhiteMotor: 2.7rs or 2.4 if it doesn't fall in the date range. None the less, i'd work the crap out of it because i cannot not touch a engine. Fuel delivery/induction: This will all have to be custom for me. All electronic. So, ITBs ect. Transmission: No idea here, What ever works?Brakes: Biggest available Suspension: What good is old suspension? KW or Ohlins for me. Wheels: 901 steel wheels, modified with larger barrels for wider tyres. Sizes? bigger is better Oh in black. Interior: Original, CanCan (red) come out then? Body/Aero mods: None, keep it original. Electrical: All modern. Other: All chrome would go black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clutch-monkey Posted 8July, 2016 Report Share Posted 8July, 2016 who's checking ? well it looks correct with long intake trumpets so who would know 915 box3.6 with trumpets, just tell everyone you converted to twin plug. bonus points for slide throttle. Double bonus points for secondary injectors at the top of the trumpets, or stand off injectors, though these would likely suit a high revving 3.0L made into a 3.3 short stroke. or 2.7 made into a 2.9L short stroke.large bore monty muffler to fit under the rear valencelexan rear window, quarter windowswelded in six point cage, must be painted in body colour, or bonus points if you integrate it like a RUFvitaloni mirrors mounted direct to the doorsmomo steering wheel of appropriate vintageseats like these http://www.vintageseats.com/products/rs-seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 13July, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 13July, 2016 I more or less threw the period parts bin into the equation for the challenge of it, rather than the purists/elitists factor. It's really easy now in 2016 to cherry pick from 50 years of 911 parts, a little harder with 10 years of production parts. I will confess and divulge now I guess? I am thinking about my next Porsche, I am going to be (hopefully) in a position to take on a car project next year onwards, I would very much like to do something of the kind. Although I am so far thinking: <66 narrow body, small capacity MFI motor etc etc.I like this flavour very much (except the wheels), what happened to the guy that had ordered one on here? I was following that, but it seems to have disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzieman Posted 28July, 2016 Report Share Posted 28July, 2016 I would consult my 1968 factory "Information Regarding Porsche Vehicles Used for Sports Purpose Manual" and build a targa rally type car.Of course this would require a long hunt for rare and expensive parts. But it would be an ultimate 901 & involve some interesting overseas travelling . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBRUT Posted 28July, 2016 Report Share Posted 28July, 2016 Its a great color. My 73E is that color and it looks really cool. Unusual but not completely off the wall. I saw a couple of beige grey cars at Rennsport USA. Aside from the 1980's guards red respray, my 67 is otherwise basically unmodified. Such a shame it got painted...
