the perfect car: a porsche citroen 911 DS franken-sportscar

the 911, cut and stripped off everything, waiting for assembly

I'm not sure where the engine is going to go, electric?

........ the german-french hybrid is fitted with a turbocharged 260 horsepower engine in the rear bonnet of the 1955 DS. under the hood, the original air cooling system is replaced with a forced water cooling pipeline

I still don't get it.

The engine bay had to be configured so the 3000 cc power-plant could be properly fitted. ‘we totally forgot that to fit a porsche 911 engine into the rear bonnet of a citroen DS is as easy as squeezing a pumpkin into a pea pod,’ explains brandpowder. ‘if you shift the engine 90° horizontally, and slide the backseat 10 inches forward, you get enough room, adds johnson. ‘you want a lower center of gravity on a car that’s going to be longer and higher than a regular 911.’

An interesting styling fusion none the less.
