Default 77' 911 Hotrod

Hey guys ... so, here we go again, divorce papers are almost signed and I'm ready to roll !! LOL

Ryan gave me sh@! for not posting this here, and I think this belongs here even more so than Killer Piggy build (which we will be going VERY soon) so here she is, my 1977 911 Carerra Hotrod build at CCSpeedline in LA.

So for quite a while I've been searching for a backdate/hotrod 911 and to be quite honest everything Ive seen has been extremely expensive, not the right colour, engine not good enough, interior sucks etc .... I stumbled across a partially completed build thread by a VERY reputable shop in LA asking what colour should I paint this car to sell. I reached out to Nathan and we talked for some time and the next thing I know I'm sending him a hefty deposit !!

This is a 1977 original Carrera with an IROC front bumper, duck tail that was going to be Nathan's (shop owner ... did I mention that he paints the 911's for Singer) personal car. Nathan is an amazing guy and somewhat of a purist, but I am pushing his boundaries a bit with this build but we completely see eye to eye on the ultimate vision of this car ... which is amazing and makes things so much easier and more exciting.

So here she is ...
1977 IROC Carrera with duck tail in Montana blue
3.2 stroked to a 3.5 William Knight built, stack Injected JSR, 350HP engine
915 5 speed transmission with short shift kit
Full coil-over suspension
Cayman brakes
Custom Fuchs 7x15 / 8x15
Full custom interior
Full custom electronic controlled/valved GT3 exhaust
Custom electric AC system with dual condenser/upgraded Alternator
Roll bar / harnesses

Here we go ...

YES YES YES ...!!!!! MORE ! absolutely love Steve's vision i see s far , very detailed oriented, very singer like . If this is a fraction of the 69 , or either fj40s , it will be amazing . As I said privately besides my chevelle my "next list is " a 67-72 c10 and a 911 porsche . Just because its German doesn't mean it doesn't belong here . Anyone with the slightest idea knows these 911s can identify as pro-touring , which is kinda surprising that nobody else has done one . Beyond excited to see this one pan out and if your serious Steve YES 100 percent would LOVE to take her around the block, if you need help with final assembly or want to lend me your credit card # ... let me know , cheers buddy

Default Thanks guys

As always .., thanks guys, extremely excited about this one
Jeff, what is it with us FJ guys / Porsches LOL ... I forgot you had one too

Thanks Ryan ... yes EVERY minute detail on this build is being considered without going down the abyss of the P-Car $$$. It's insane that I can build a new 750Hp LSA for the FJ55/Piggy for $12,000, and the cost of the 350Hp engine for this 911 Hotrod ... well, you dont even want to know !!

At the end of the day though as Ryan has mentioned, it will have the Singer 'feel' but for a fraction of the price

Stay tuned ... This build will go quickly, she will be complete by May !!

Steve
