Does the perfect road and track car exist? – Not likely, but this one comes close.
All the power and on-rails handling needed to give a 2.0L 911 an inferiority complex
- One of the sweetest, high-revving, radical cam motors ever
- Full race suspension development
- The looks, fit and finish that assure valet parking in the be-seen section of the finest restaurants.
- Great body, panel alignment and paint
- Purposeful, high-function interior
- Bullet proof reliability, economy and safety features for daily driving or track competition.

Each great vintage car is built to a standard. I targeted near-show quality, with the civility needed for daily driving and performance to compete on track with the race-only crowd.

History
I have not documented the history but do believe the following to be accurate: Built in December 1973 as a 2.0L, 4-cylinder in Olympia Blue. Purchased new and owned for several years by a Brumos employee. Around 1993 it was sold to a parachute manufacturer in Deland, Fl. who installed the freshly rebuilt 1967 911 S motor. Following the 1995 Rolex 24, Cole Scrogham of G&W, now Synergy Racing, and I inspected the car and found it to be in exceptional condition. The battery tray had been removed and the battery relocated to the trunk but it otherwise was a remarkable rust, free dent free example needing only trim work, fit & finish and proper prep. It had 2 budget paint jobs, one in the 80’s and one in the early 90’s Both jobs were outside only, the first to Alaska Blue Metallic and then back to Olympia Blue. I rebuilt the transmission in 1995 with new syncro rings, dog teeth and a new 1 st / reverse gear. Most of the race preparation work was completed in 1996 at G&W (now Synergy racing) under the direction of Cole Scrogham. In 2000, Kirk Schueman, Automotivation II, did a very fine prep and first rate paint job. He also matched the Targa top to the body color. The result is great, maybe too great. I have only vintage raced the car twice since then. I enjoy it regularly as a driver finding every chance I can to exploit its race car roots.
Known Defects
- Touched up scratch on the lip of the right rear wheel arch (see photo)
- Sail panel trim and seals shows some age
- Transmission output shaft seal starting to show age, forks could be better aligned
- Oxygen sensor gauge needs service,
- This is a great driver. If your goal is to have a national show car that’s too nice to drive, expect to do some work.
