I think it’s best I keep that to myself. But just to give you a sense, engine alone is probably £70k. Total cost makes absolutely no financial sense. So I suggest you only do this if it’s a real passion project and you have no intension on selling it.

My car was resprayed 2 years ago but had a dodgy rust repair under the front window. So cut the whole front window out, bought a brand new replacement from Porsche and welded the thing in. Only way to do it properly. Awesome that Porsche still makes this stuff.

^^^ Lol good luck getting any of those parts. Bob shared some pictures of new calipers they designed. Everything they do is amazing. The CF fuel tank uses the same scavenging technology that the F1 cars incorporate.

Check out the America GS thread. It is an amazing collection of one off parts. I was lucky enough to see it in person.

BTW this is the fuel cell quite a piece of work. If only the parts were available for purchase.

Yep, they can definitely make more.

Best to contact Tony Littlejohn from GTR Motorsport. They are based in the UK. Email address is admin@gtrmotorsport.com . Mention Charles with the red 964 recommended you to him. The guy that makes the seats was a carbon specialist for Boeing. His work is top notch.
