I recently bought this from Paul Stephens. It started life as a rhd 1973 911E (although registered in 1974) and has an interesting racing history, winning to Porsche Giroflex championship and competing at Nurburgring and Spa. My cosmetic plans include fitting anodised silver window frames on the sides along with silver headlight trims. A 3.2 engine has recently been fitted from a later car and I will gradually uprate this in various ways (tbd) along with the brakes. The interior has been largely left alone from when it was a race car and I'm intending to keep it that way. More photos to come in the summer when I get it out on track and hopefully try my first hillclimb!

Sister cars! Love it!
The stance looks spot on to me, apparently they handle best with the back low.
What size wheels are they and what is the exhaust?
Also where are you based - rhd car and interesting number plate?

Hello Sir !

Great to see you here , its fantastic this place like the who's who of the British Porsche world :)
The black car is a g50 3.2 custom built by Paul Stephens , I think Sam designed it . It will replace my mini cooper as my daily car .
I went to see Sam at PS and he was fantastic , the car is on 15 inch Minilites and is set up to have an almost perfect ( for me at least ) balance of power , handling and grip . It is a G50 box 3.2 . It was resprayed , the engine ( top end ) was rebuilt , interior was backdated along with the exterior . Then it was put on Minilites and treated to a semi " R " / custom look . I just fell in love with it , it will make a different , exciting and quite practical ( for my needs at least ) daily car . On the 15 inch wheels its just tremendous fun at legal speeds . Paul and Sam took great care of me and I wandered off and kept coming back to drive it ( I just couldnt resist it ) and eventually took the plunge and bought it .

Hoping to pick up on Wednesday :)

Hope you are well
WT
