Your Porsche pic of the day......

I know it’s got it’s haters but I love it

To be fair I’ve loved most if not all of Ritchie’s cars since the 80s

I admired the sentiment, and the workmanship, to an end goal....but the moment someone thinks 'now let's slam it, narrow the beam and put silly wheels and tyres on it', they sail blindly past the point......Lighten for performance not look. W

Totally agree!
Plus I am none too sure, despite the builders comments it has not been structurally compromised, how it would all end up in even a minor shunt.

Narrow beams and skinny boots are obviously very standard stuff on the VW scene and generally I’m uninterested, but I think on this car it’s a glorious touch. It makes it look diminutive and fragile. It takes the visual weight out of it and moves it back in time a bit giving it a whiff of the Typ 64. It makes it look like it weighs 600kg.

It’s not a performance circuit car, or another carbon copy hot rod and it’s certainly not supposed to win all the NCAP stars. Think of it as a piece of design and it’s arguably the best modified early car ever built.

I wouldn’t want to drive it, but that’s hardly the point.

I don't think anythings been narrowed, just the offset of the wheels thats all. Looks more normal from this angle although definitely slammed! I really like it visually and conceptually.

No narrowing i believe and it’s in for suspension geo set up this week

Above is very nice though, I can leave the 911 in his garage tbh.
You would have to work hard to narrow a 911 front 'beam'.

Love the above's colour and many details, maybe you have a few more pics?

Fastest lap on the 1970 Targa Florio at 78.89mph went to Leo Kinnunen in the 2nd place 908/3 number 40, a record that stands today. The win was taken by the number 12 car of Siffert / Redman, the threat from the Alfa 33/3 ending when as Piers Courage put it “a tree stepped out in front of me”. Developed from the 909 hillclimb special whose rear axle was pushed back by moving the gears ahead of the diff, engine capacity of the 908/3 was upped 50% to 3 litres
