Tuning a 944 at David Smiths shop in Panama City….lots of nice toys in the shop!
Yes, that a Fabcar 944….

Awesome pictures!! Did you get a close up of the FABCAR VIN plate on the right side of the dash? I ask because at least one of them misspelled the name Porsche, and I'm curious if that was a one-time error or not....

Jealous!
You need to come stop by my 'shop' (driveway) if you ever come by Disney. Lol

It’s spelled correctly….had to wipe off the drool to see!

Was that the Andial engine or similar configuration?

As I understand the 7 cars were put together by Al Holbert and he had access to any factory race Porsche parts that he wanted.

Thanks for the photos. There is some incredible work going on that car. Are the blue fittings to the cam towers for oil sprayers for the valve springs?

Yes. Nobody has said what the redline was on this engine, I’m guessing it had an aggressive cam so cooling the valve springs would be a good idea

Those GTR:s are truly amazing! Porsche should have kept pushing and developing the transaxle cars instead of dropping its work in -81and leaving it to non factory outfits.
If these awesome mashines had full factory support the story of the transaxle cars would had been very successful.

Wow, that is seriously cool
