Beginning life as a standard Porsche 911T Coupe, this 1972 example is the subject of custom RSR-inspired restoration by TRE Motorsports in California. The car was modified with Dansk steel 930 rear quarters, RSR-style body parts, a ducktail rear spoiler, Lindsey Racing 17” Fuchs wheels, and a custom interior featuring heated Recaro Sportster CS bucket seats. It derives power from an upgraded Carrera 3.2-liter flat-six motor paired with a rebuilt short-ratio 5-speed G50 manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential. The suspension has been redone with RSR coilovers, 935 spring plates, 22mm torsion bars, Weltmeister sway bars, and monoball bushings. The car also features a Brembo GTP brake kit, a TRE upper strut brace, H4 European headlamps, 911R-style taillights, new air conditioning components, a MOMO steering wheel, RSR-style door panels, a TRE roll bar, lightweight carpeting, a Wevo shifter, and a Porsche Classic Radio with Apple CarPlay. Featured in a 5-page article in Excellence Magazine, this comprehensively restored and upgraded 911 RSR tribute is now being offered for auction out of Florida accompanied by extensive build documentation.

This 911T was reportedly sourced as a rust-free California car and subsequently refinished in its original Black (700) paint color. The exterior has been modified with TRE Motorsport’s lightweight fiberglass RSR-style fenders, steel Dansk 930 Turbo rear fender flares, lightweight RSR-style bumpers, a Getty Designs ducktail rear spoiler, and an original steel long hood and pre-1974 bulkhead behind the front bumper. The fuel door was removed from the front fender in favor of a center hood-mounted fuel cap connected to an upgraded 21-gallon tank. Other details include H4 European headlights, Rennline 911R-style taillights, dual exhaust outlets, matte gold Porsche lettering on the rear deck lid and door sills, and Carrera RSR lettering on the ducktail. The car rides on RSR-style Lindsey Racing Fuchs wheels measuring 17”x9” in front and 17”x11” in the rear with Toyo R888 tires sized 245/45ZR17 and 315/35ZR17 respectively.

The interior has been redone with lightweight Perlon carpeting, vinyl RSR-style door panels, a leather-covered dashboard, and heated Recaro Sportster CS seats in genuine Napa leather upholstery. Other equipment includes a leather-covered MOMO Mod 07 steering wheel, a black Wevo shifter, updated dash gauges, a TRE RSR roll bar, leather door pull straps, new speakers, and a Porsche Classic Communication Management head unit with Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth audio. The air conditioning system has been entirely overhauled with a new compressor, receiver drier, and R134A refrigerant. The evaporator is mounted in the left fender instead of under the car for added ground clearance. In addition to extra clearance, the spot in the fender also allows more cool air to reach the evaporator.

Power comes from an air-cooled 3.2-liter flat-six engine sourced from a 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera. The engine has been modified with 20/21 WebCams camshafts, a custom Steve Wong performance DME chip, Nology spark plug wires, and a custom exhaust system featuring SSI heat exchangers and a Magnaflow dual outlet muffler. The car was dyno-tested at an output of 243 HP at the rear wheels. Power is transferred through a 5-speed G50 manual gearbox rebuilt with short-ratio gearing, steel synchros, a billet actuation fork, and a limited-slip differential

The rear suspension features reinforced shock towers with RSR coilovers, stiffer Bilstein inserts, 935 spring plates, a 22mm Weltmeister sway bar, and Alan Johnson USA 22mm torsion bars.The front end includes an adjustable 23mm Weltmeister sway bar and a TRE upper strut tower brace. Stopping power has been upgraded with a Brembo GTP brake kit including aluminum four-piston calipers at all four corners, 12.7” cross-drilled rotors, and Porterfield brake pads. At the front, the rotor is a two-piece design that features a lightweight billet aluminum hat. A Carrera vacuum booster and master cylinder set-up have been retrofitted as well. The seller adds that a 6-month refurbishment was completed in November 2024, overseen by the air-cooled experts at Foreign Affairs Motorwerks in South Florida.

This sale will include a 3” binder of build documentation, invoices, and photos, along with a clean Montana title. 

 

The seller would like you to know:  "Modifica Classica, translated from Italian as classically modified, was founded by industrial designer Elie Man.  This is Modifica Classica's 8th 911 build infused with modern industrial design elements.  This RSR Outlaw is an intoxicating drive, the flat-six absolutely sings and wails as the revs pile on, and it feels glorious in the mid-higher rev range.  The massive rubber contact patch also ensures this 911 has tons of grip with highly responsive and very direct steering. Fun fact, the sale of the vehicle comes with a photo of the previous owner Bob Britton alongside Rob Dickinson, founder of Singer, and the pairs 911s both built by TRE Motorsports in California.  Apparently, Rob's ST tribute at TRE was his inspiration to start Singer."

    It sounds like front quarter panels and fenders are fiberglass. Is this correct? Are rear quarter panels all steel or are flares steel and quarter panels fiberglass? Please forgive my ignorance but I’d appreciate a little more clarification. Thank you!

    I've build several '72s with 3.2 engines and its worth mentioning the original oil tank capacity is lower than the 73 and later tank, so yes, the oil door & tank are gone, but that doesn't make it less of a hot rod.
    I respect Len's knowledge, but taste is an individual matter. TRE mentioned to me that this is a build they are proud of and IMO, shold be.

    @BoxsterGT -- please stop.

  • BoxsterGT (registered bidder) 4 days, 7 hoursago

    Never said it wasn't a spectacular vehicle.
    I am saying it is not a real 1972 911 without its original Oil Tank & Door.
    It is now something else. To me it is a shame it wasn't kept with the original 72 spec Oil system.

    Mr BoxsterGT. I am the prior owner. Your comment is off base ( to be kind). Ever look at the VIN? It started life as a 911T from 1972. It was beautifully customized. The engine/ tranny are not from a 1972 Porsche either. Any thoughts there? That car is a dream. I got too old to enjoy it. The seller did a great job in bringing the car back to its for we glory and then some. Whoever gets it will have one fantastic long hood.

  • SILOmike (registered bidder) 4 days, 10 hoursago

    @BoxsterGT -- I think you're missing the point. It was a '72 911T many years ago, but now represented as a custom build.

  • BoxsterGT (registered bidder) 4 days, 10 hoursago

    Yes, I agree this is a beautiful work of art.
    However it is not a real 72 911 once the Oil Tank & related pieces that make the 72 unique are removed.

  • modificaclassica (seller) 4 days, 10 hoursago

    @BoxsterGT this is an entirely custom built car, not to mention the subsequent 20 years of impeccably documented maintenance, and all my detailed invoices. The oil door was removed prior to TRE’s initial build, creating a car like this today with all the elements that have gone into the chassis, powertrain, upgraded brake vacuum booster, short geared custom G50 transmission, upgraded cams in the 3.2L, all the suspension work, body work, interior, etc would be incredibly difficult to replicate a cost well exceeding 2-3x of the initial build’s investment. At any rate, this is one very special outlaw, and thanks for looking!

  • BoxsterGT (registered bidder) 4 days, 11 hoursago

    Photo 52 shows the Oil Door missing, yet I see no mention of the unique 72 Oil Tank being removed.
    This makes this a bastardized 72 in my opinion.

  • Holmesjc3 (registered bidder) 4 days, 11 hoursago

    What an incredible build! Would be highly tempted by this one if I had the garage space, nicely done. GLWTS!!! 🤤

  • Cherche-pepite (registered bidder) 4 days, 12 hoursago

    Thanks!

  • modificaclassica (seller) 4 days, 12 hoursago

    @Cherche-pepite I am an industrial designer by profession, and Modifica Classica building air cooled 911s is my passion project.

    With regards to heat in the Recaro Sportster CS, it’s an option worth ticking when buying these seats as they are great for other markets, and pragmatic for about 4-6 weeks a year in Florida.

  • Cherche-pepite (registered bidder) 4 days, 13 hoursago

    I'm curious, but I don't mean to pry: why are you selling such a beautiful build?

    Do those Recaro seat heaters come in handy in Boca?

  • modificaclassica (seller) 4 days, 22 hoursago

    I’ve added screen shots to the gallery, including detailed itemized list from the prior owner’s build with TRE motorsports, subsequent 20 years of ownership maintenance, as well as screen shots of all the itemized recent work and maintenance done to the car during my restoration. Hope this is helpful, and thanks again for interest in this incredible machine.

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 weekago

    @MSL212 I’ve posted additional frunk interior images showing all wiring, trunk hinges, fuel tank, etc. It is very clean for a 52 year old car. No electrical issues whatsoever.

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 weekago

    @modificaclassica *monoballs, apologies somehow auto spelling corrected typing on my phone.

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 weekago

    @flatcrank Regarding suspension setup, a TRE motorsports upper strut brace was bolted in to cut down on chassis flex; and a 23mm weltmieister anti-roll bar was installed to reduce excessive body roll, as well as a set of AJ USA 22-mm torsion bars to replace the stock units. The rear suspension has upgraded RSR coil-overs along with 935 spring plates, along with stiffer Bilstein inserts. The rear shock towers are reinforced with triangulated steel welded onto where the chassis and shock towers meet, along with he welmeister anti-roll bar and later aluminum control arms. Also, monorails replaced the soft rubber control-arm bushings to eliminate slop. Sorry I don't have spring dampers/weights. Doing my best to answer all questions, hope this helps!!

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 weekago

    @MSL212 the fuel filler is inside the frunk, not part of the hood. This was the style of fuel filler on the original RSR. The frunk is in good condition, there are some additional pics in the gallery, all wiring was sorted in the original build, additional fuse now in place for the Recaro Sportster CS Napa heated seats.

  • MSL212 (registered bidder) 1 weekago

    A very interesting Outlaw. The description states a "hood mounted fuel filler", I don't see this. Could you comment on the condition of the frunk? What was done to the electrical system, the finish in this area does not look up to the standards of the rest of the car. Could you post more images of the frunk and the electrical system in the engine bay as well. Were wiring harnesses replaced during the modifications?

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 week, 4 daysago

    @flatcrank reminds me of Black Beauty as well :)

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 week, 4 daysago

    @flatcrank Foreign Affairs Motorwerks did all the recent work for me, also repainted the fan the RSR looking silver, it was yellow under the previous owner, and plug wire colors were changed previously as well.

  • modificaclassica (seller) 1 week, 4 daysago

    @flatcrank it had the 3.2L in the mag feature as well, but didn’t have the 3.2L badge until 2007. I know this only because I have every single invoice from the previous owner’s 20 year 3-ring binder. I removed the yellow theme and repainted the car over the last seven months and added the matte gold vinyl graphics.

  • flatcrank (registered bidder) 1 week, 4 daysago

    Following up on the 2.7 question, I see the magazine noted the incongruous 2.7 badge on an RSR 2.8 body that happens to have a later Carrera 3.2 … I guess the yellow theme was removed at some point.
    The hose clamps instead of locating collars on the sway bars is another question.
    The orange plastic "air horns" are another "what's the story behind that?" question. : )

  • flatcrank (registered bidder) 1 week, 4 daysago

    Reminds me of Black Beauty.
    The air-conditioning is unexpected, but welcome.
    Magnaflow exhaust can is also unexpected and seems out of place! : )
    What are the suspension dampers and springs (and spring weights)?
    Looks like the paint has held up well, when was it painted?
    What are the corner balance numbers?
    The magazine spread shows a different engine, did it have a 2.7 previously?

    Happy thanksgiving folks, just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I'm here to answer anybody's questions regarding this stunning 72 911. The 3.2L with G50 trans absolutely rips with upgraded cams, short gears, WEVO shift, SSI heat exchangers, limited slip, and dialed in suspension with so many parts to list make this RSR Outlaw an absolutely intoxicating and incredible drive.
