Projekt 906 anyone?

[BURN-BROS]

I just won this on Evil-bay...





I wasn't planning on doing something like this but the opportunity presented itself. What do you guys think?

I guess Im gonna have to start tracking down info about these cars. Anybody have any 906 doors?

[Jeff Alton]

If all you got was a front clip, it would make nice wall art.....

Was there more to it?

Cheers

Or a nice couch
do you have a chassis already?

[BURN-BROS]

Nope, thats it. But I may have access to the original tooling. If anybody has nice detail shots of the 906 please post.

sounds like you'll be heading to Daytona in November with camera in hand.

I have worked on a couple, hens teeth anyone?

[HelmetHead]

Nice front clip. Is that a replica part or is it factory?
Here's a couple of pictures I took at Keels n Wheels this March of a Local Houstonians' 906.

a guy Randy (906er) in the above thread has parts...and he is in LA.

[BURN-BROS]

Ok, picked up the nose and it was as advertized. overall very good finish.
It is not a factory part, rather pulled from molds taken from a factory piece.

Thanks for link John, I have been on that site before but couldn't find it. Randy sells the Kraftwerks bodies from down under. I am checking on pricing and have calls out on info on some details of the 906.

Here's an old thread I saved of a 910 clone, the guy who made the car was up in the bay area:

910 clone!

Please keep us posted, this could become an awesome project if you build it up.

looks like a 60-100k project by the time you finish it first rate (which aaron can do)

Really! Not that I have any money but I think $100K on a well built 906 replica would be money well spent. Beautiful car that must be a ball to drive.

No doubt about the expense! I have a call out on the 910 uprights that were done in magnesium just in case I do not find or like the Lotus set-up....wonder what that will set me back. Here is a link on part of the 910 project.http://www.emicroscribe.com/casestudy/porsche%20907.htm


And thanks for the vote of confidence Dave, hope to see you at Ventura.

I now have access to the factory chassis fixtures! Hurray for me.

What the hell???
I thought you were headed in a direction that included two more cylinders.
I know where you can get an engine.

You know, that was the ]THIRD engine I thought about.
The first was a 2.65 SS MFI and the second was the 2.8SS MFI

Care to post a pic of the 2.8SS which happens to be my favorite one in house right now?

[Henry Schmidt]

Short stroke 2.8 in a 906, pleeeeeease!
There must be some rule of law somewhere in the world.


If we're being crazy why not a 3.4 high butterfly?


Take your pick!!! 2.0, 2.5, 2.8, 3.2SS, 3.4 high buttery, 3.5
