The not a real six 1972 3.6 914 that sold for $170k is back on BAT
Will it get over $170k again? I doubt it. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-pors...ampaign_2461171 Love the new video https://youtu.be/sIHG8TLuDOw?si=X3sU-GKCjtvdgyYM Mine is similar to this one, but not professionally built and half the price. However, I doubt there is a shop out there that that would build an equivalent car for under $200k |

Hard to tell with the heat exchangers blocking the view, but it doesn't appear the inner suspension ears are reinforced. With that wheel and tire combination that area will fail (crack). That's really my main criticism of this beautiful build.
For a street car I think 22mm torsion bars and a 19 sway bar is way to stiff up front. I'm running stock 911 19mm with a stock bar and that feels too stiff for me. |

Hi Michael, For safety reasons you should let them know you believe the inner suspension ears will crack if not reinforced. It's always good to lend your expertise. Take care! |
