1985 Porsche 911 Long-Term Road Test - Miscellaneous

Long ago and far, far way, guys used to take the chassis of a Volkswagen Beetle and put a plastic body of a Porsche on top.

It was called a kit car, and such things were all the rage in the 1960s and early 1970s, when everyone wanted to build his own cool car and there were a million dead Beetles to work with. After all, a Porsche 356 was just a re-bodied Beetle to begin with, wasn't it?

Oddly enough, guys are still buying Porsche kit cars, only now they start with Porsche 911 components. And I can't help looking at the Black Plague and thinking about disassembling it and bringing it back to life Frankenstein style as an Intermeccanica Speedster-6 as seen here.

1). I'm guessing Al has a lower radar signature with a bit of trick paint?

2). With a hybrid drive+solar panels, it could sit for long periods then drive invisible of heat signature from the air.

3). Plus, because of lightweight design it would be more portable by air, more fuel efficient for distance travel, thus more independent from supply lines/zones...

But FU dirty hippy!
Because Prius.

Yep, lighter than steel but cheaper, more durable and easier to repair than composite.
