my porsche engined hillclimber





I thought it was about time i showed you my porsche engined hillclimber. As you all probably remember it is the car on Ebay last summer.
Not found a great deal of info on the car yet other than what has been posted on Auto Diva and a few other links. On the following link go to 1985 group c and there is the car winning its class on the hillclimb.

The car appear to run an Air cooled 3.0L 911 motor the engine mounting was still on the chassis and you can see on the side pod the placement for the oil tank. It is using March suspension, but it is its own designed spaceframe chassis.
The car is slowly coming back together and will be sporting the 3.2 boxster with 6 speed as shown in the above pic. OK its not original but have you seen how much a good 911 aircooled unit goes for!
