I like it. It definitely looks buffed out and tuff. However, I think it is perhaps a little too Singer inspired. No one does Singer like Singer. It's very hard to duplicate a car that takes two thousand man hours to build.
Indeed. I'm all up for backdates. But this just looks like a replica of a Singer. If you can't get a Patek Phillipe then get an IWC - not a replica Patek.
For those interested the car is owned by a chap called 'Gary Walters'. He posts in the '964 Club' Facebook group. The car has been for sale for a little while now - £76K
I'll take DP Motorsport or PStephens back date every time.
Black-betty, I'm considering getting a new faceplate from porschedials.com for my rev counter and rotating it like yours (in red). One thing I've been wondering. With each update I do, I check that the car can be returned to original in the future, so kept my old door cards etc and have a hoard of original stuff in my garage attic. When putting in the new faceplate, does the original faceplate come out clean to enable future use?
Not sure if you guys have seen this (I hadn't till yesterday) but a good singer thread over in the 997 GT2/GT3 Forum - although not entirely sure why its there !$$$! https://rennlist.com/forums/997-gt2-...storation.html
Since 2006, we’ve been coming up with ways to backdate the 964 model into proper longhood 911s. One item that we’ve had the opportunity to share with other shops is the hybrid steering column, which allows the use of 69-73 levers, clamshell, and steering wheel and really makes for an authentic interior statement.
We’re posting our notes here for public consumption – enjoy and good luck!
