Some help to know what is possible on a 964 Base

Hello everybody

I am relatively new to this so sorry if its to much of a newbee question.

To cut a long story short, I looked my entire childhood at Porsches and now finally decided that I will get one (In my mid 20s now). But as a daily driver and not an weekend car. I really like the 60s an 70s chassis so I want to go for this look.

This here is the kind of look I want to go for but I want to base it on a 964.







I believe all these backdates are on sc version, or am I wrong ?

Because I only see 964 conversions with really big rear fenders and I personally don't like that. I want to go for a slimmer and less aggressive look. Is there a problem I might run in to when I do this on a 964 base ?

Also, where do I get the Body parts from? I know the professional backdating garages but as I said they don't really offer the look I am going for plus they always want to sell a 100K something complete package that I can not afford ... Any advice ?

Also I am based in Germany so the TÜV is really strict. I can not mod to much.

Thank you for the advice guys

We did this to a ex racer 94 RS America 964.

Its expensive to do correctly

Singer is working on TUV approved model, which has to have stock engine/ trans to meet the regulations.
Projected price is in the 280k+ range to start

Our project costs considerably less

Apart from the 280K which I lack I don't like my future Porsche to have a fat ass. Tastes are different, personally I think the Singer is ugly, no offense ...
