Porsche 924 Turbo (Type 931). Carrera GT Evocation. 1980 ‘V'

A superb 924 Turbo which has been painstakingly built to precisely replicate the 924 Carrera GT and which is now offered for sale by the long-term Porsche enthusiast owner.

Based on the rarer. Series 1. Porsche 924 Turbo models. only built during 1979-80. and

finished in Porsche Grand Prix White 507. (to emulate the prototype Carrera GT/GTS models). and

enhanced with a Carrera GT bodykit. all as part of an extensive rebuild. which saw many fittings re-anodised and powder coated. The body kit is not a poorly attached fibreglass kit. instead it includes steel front wings and the correct rear inner wheel-arch in-fills for those iconic flared arches.

The detailed engine bay features many as-new components in appearance.

It has

the very expensive and much sought-after Fuchs lightweight alloy rims (7-inch front/8-inch rear. as on the 911 Turbo) in excellent. polished condition. wrapped in Yokohama Ad Van tyres.
