Porsche 944 with DP break conversion






Awesome looking conversion! Would make a heck of a practical and fun daily driver. Last couple of builds were available just a few months ago, guess they had some NOS parts laying around and decided to complete a few cars with them.

Just found lout the pics came from Helmut Schnug at shooting-brake.com

Porsche 944 Turbo (951) 1989



Bought this car from the original owner back when I was in college. Was in good shape for a daily driver but being a Florida car and having been left outside all its life the paint was baked. I repainted in the original Guards Red and at the same time fabbed the fixed headlights starting with a fiberglass center panel with the intercooler duct molded in and cutting the holes for the four PIAA lights. Also added the splitter, 18” Kinesis K-10 wheels, and a ton of engine work including ported and o-ringed head, bigger turbo, 3” exhaust, Split Second fuel management, and adjustable turbo boost among many other things. Also painted the mirrors white to emulate the Daytona 24 hour cars (used to differentiate identical cars in teams with two or more cars painted the same) there was supposed to be a white banner across the top of the windshield but I never got around to it before selling it.
