There's well over 150k in my current car..'87 US spec 930 as base.. looking to buy another Protomotive rig that is being built. Will move for 50ish... THIS car is a steal at that price.. I'm not one of the ''rich guys' I need to move this for a gt2 2wd 993.. Some help please..:-)

Todd Knighton (Protomotive) originally built the motor and Prototech did a *major* rebuild approx 2400 miles ago.. here's the goodie list; last(only) timed run was 0-85 in under 5 seconds..Protomotove won the 996TT shootout and has/had the fastest street legal Porsche in US.. This car was built for comfortable street use and longevity.. NEVER tracked. This car should not require anything for quite a while…and has NEVER been abused..

This car is beautiful and sexy, sits perfectly, sounds AMAZING, handles great, is comfortable and is stupidly fast…it also seeps/leaks NO oil.. I have built/owned 20+ VERY high performance cars and this is the pinnacle.. if I wasn’t mid 40’s and wanted a car with a little more margin for error due to my reflexes being a little slower I would never sell her…

You could not replicate her, even with less expensive pieces for under $110k…

Approx 2400 mile currently (engine/clutch) with other (non-engine) work performed since 2001 approximately. (15,000 miles) 900 miles currently on odometer effective 9/15/05. Approximate mileage on chassis 73,000

Ed, where did you get the DP935 style tail from?
I need one to accommodate my Protomotive TT Intercooler.

Judging by Odellconsult's avatar I'd say he's the current owner.

ProtoCab

Yes, but Ed is the original builder of this car. He'd know best as to what type of tail it is and more importantly, where he got it from

Is it a ProtoSport creation, or DP Motorsports?

jgrant

It looks a lot like the tail on my DP, except I don't see the "DP" recesses in that tail (where the "turbo" is).
