Many moons ago I owned a 911, and I have done quite a lot of work under the engine cover of a Fiberfab VW TDr.
There is no good shot of the engine, but I’d be willing to bet that this is not powered by a 911 engine (all 911’s were powered with 6 cylinder engines). Any takers?…maybe a 912 4 cylinder engine??? -

The link doesn’t work for me and I sure would like to see how they fit a 6 cyl Porsche engine in there.

Here’s the key to the engine number and letter codes.
Many older/smaller engines have been re-jugged with 1600 cylinder/piston combos. -

I think there is probably a good reason you don’t see that done too much.

Stephen, it’s not the 1600. It’s the hp vs cc.

They only glared at me once. I kept trying to get a look at the back end of the cars. They were all oriented head on with no good views of the back. One had a nice luggage rack I would have really liked to see how it was constructed and attached. I’ll be back there soon, maybe call ahead and see if I can get “closer.”And I remember seeing the one…[Read more]

Cool car and with earlier TC-type wheels would look the part. That and lose those oversized tail lights. And also needs the Bluemels Brooklands steering wheel. An easy swap.
Here’s what that should look like.I think something like 2000 J2s ever made and maybe a couple hundred left on earth? -

I’m surprised of the mileage I’ve accrued since I repaired my odometer last February. Over 2,300 miles so far this season. I had guessed my total mileage was in the neighborhood of 80-85K. With this true number as a gauge, I would have to guess it’s up around 100K. Who’d a thunked it?
