Default Singer?

My understanding is that singer is done restoring the 964 carerra model. Any idea what they are moving too next? What is the process to get on the list?

I read somewhere they were going to focus on the turbo study cars and the NA division will be finishing what they have in the works.

Assume you get on the list by giving them a pile of gold and your phone number. You can connect with them through their website:

They will still be using Carrera 2 and 4 chassis though.

Yea, whatever cars they make are all 964 based. So doesn't matter, they're still taking em.

I'm (partially) glad they are the ones grabbing them...instead of RWB cutting them up and putting ****kit on them.

To each their own. RWB have morphed into a different experience than what the OG cars were. I like the rough mentality, fix it yourself, non-show/concours type stuff, but it seems now it has more leaned to the latter of show cars with minimal attention to the engines. His work is def a little on the rougher end of the spectrum, but IMO I dig it. Serviceable in the garage with Sikaflex and self-tappers. Race/repair and continue on!

For several reasons, the demand for the Singer conversion has calmed down a lot. The price is still >$1M, and the wait time is 2 years; however, with a 964 donor car and money, you too can have a Singer now. If you do not have a 964, they can help you get one. The resale of Singer cars has also been rather lukewarm.
