"The car wasn’t far off being scrap; when the delivery truck turned up with it on the back my wife said “We aren’t gonna see Daddy for a long time, kiddies”. The car was multi-coloured, distressed patina style."
"The Type 002 IRS transmission was exposed and poking through the cutaway central tunnel so we fabricated a new cone shape over it, Singer-style."
"The arms and torsion assemblies have been brought in 10”, and raised 6” to get the 911 to a respectable height. The result is a stock handling front end with tucked front wheels"
Best yet: "This car is now officially an ‘outlaw’. The Porsche purists are definitely not fans. As far as I know this is the lowest porsche in the world (on static suspension.) I am a designer so I can’t keep a car original. There is always an improvement in my eyes to be made."
There are some nice details on that car - shame about that god awful stance / tucked wheels. An improvement on the original they are definitely not....
Started to read it and gave up pretty quick. I like a 911 that's done a bit different to all the others but that stance/tuck whatever may look ok on a VW, but it's hardly an Outlaw is it?

There's a few nice touches. The best bit is the tatted bint in the pics - wouldn't mind corrupting her further.
I'm getting really tired of the Outlaw this, outliaw that - it's a lifestyle not a car, blah blah blah blah. The VW scene hasn't benefited from such bollocks
so sounds like the narrow front end is being ripped out 7 replaces with a " poking front wheel set up " .. which I assume mneas wheels out further than the arches in typical 'VAG' styley ?
Apart from the narrow front end, I quite like this car as its not pretending to be the latest trackday special or B-road blaster,
I'm too old and cynical to be swept up into it these days, there was a time in my mid 20s when I went for that in a big way but it lasted about an afternoon.

Oh and if that handles like a stock front end then if I had ham we could make a ham and cheese sandwich, if of course I had some cheese
