From RLer gippy's "928 6 WHEEL PICKUP" thread on the 928 Forum:

Had to watch the shock settings, as too much in rear axle would lift the front and smoke the tires. Got a lot of looks.

He also has the 928 body on the truck chassis - same thing. Not possible to register in Germany.

Saw this on the interwebs this morning. Apparently a crashed 930 haphazardly made into a K3 replica....

"The eBay seller of the replica says it comes with all sorts of go-fast parts from the 935, including a 500hp 3.3-liter turbo six with only a little over 14,000 miles (around 22,500 km), 17-inch BBS wheels in 275/40 rubber front and 335/35 rear, front brakes from a 930 and rear from a 928, original widebody 935 rear fenders and a custom made rear wing. "

Default Amethyst Metallic with Cobalt Blue Leather

Amethyst Metallic is a pretty nice color for a 964. But Cobalt Blue Leather interior.

Having known the original owner and having seen this car years ago all I can say is that the pictures don't quite portray how bright the blue leather interior is and how "bigly" (new Trump word from the first debate) that it clashes with the Amethyst exterior.

There actually was a 993 campaigned in the 90s that way.

That picture is probably a replica, unless it is the original substantially rebuilt. The original was campaigned by Krauss Motorsport and for a while sponsored by Portfolio Consulting.

Wacky for sure, but I've always liked it.
