1980 Porsche 911 Paris/Dakar Rally Tribute Photoshoot This is a friend of mines car that I did a photoshoot for. The car is currently for sale on eBay.... here's a little write up about the car that he did.
Meet Paris...
She is an absolutely stunning freshly completed Porsche 911 Paris, Alger, Dakar Winning 953 Off Road Rally Tribute Car that has been painstakingly built over the last two years. I have spent thousands and thousands of hours building her. She was built as a tribute to the winning Porsche 953 raced from Paris to Dakar in 1984 piloted by Rene Metge and Dominique Lemoyne. Paris originally started life as a 1980 911 SC in excellent condition with zero rust. Her serial number is 91A0142795. She is street legal, plated and titled in Illinois.
In addition to all the cosmetic modifications and suspension modifications this 911 has a fresh motor rebuild including New Rings, New Valves, New Valve Guides, O-Rings, all gaskets, new clutch, new computer, Car also comes with an extra set of newly reupholstered seats.
From my understanding there were only three(3) of these factory cars, two(2) owned by Porsche and one in private hands. Although this is a reproduction, most observers will swear it is the real deal....
I'll probably post some more photos semi soon once I get caught up with everything else.

The car made it onto Bring a Trailer and it immediately hit reserve....Hopefully the new owner appreciates it.
