80’s Drug King Pin car found, restored and driven”The Porsche 935 DP MOTORSPORTS story/ride along!

[@executiveinnsuites]

I don't know if anybody remembers, but there was a kit car conversation of a dp Porsche body on a VW bug. This car is making me remember high school days. Thanks for finding this beautiful car and bringing it back to life.

Yeah it wasn’t a DP kit but it was close

Completely rad and great backstory. I'm sure this was handy for the import/export business back in the day. I'd love to own a dp Motorsports 928, I've only seen pictures of them. Love the Clarion stack as well!

[@Tonsofgas]

I would a 928 DP as well , super cool cars Thanks

[@gregoryfranks7347]

outstanding!!!!!!!! my favorite tuner porsche next to RUF. im 50 years old , this is my dream era of cars. from miami vice to 1980's cocaine traffickers. there is something so cool about the 80's tuning scene. they weren't scared to go way overboard. flacbau's with center console flip-out mirrors, hidden gun compartments and champagne cooler. dont get me started on blaupunk(cant spell). i still have a berlin and sqr- the one with the sectioned metal bendable remote. just the best era of cars ever. this car is so spot on. motor work, and the d logo's are dead nuts perfect. super-wide fuchs triple white. this is a tie for my favorites of your cars. im a premerger mental case. i cant wait to see those in more detail. again thank you so so much for really getting in depth with these videos of your cars. being theyre so rare and special no many people are doing ANY content like this. i freakin' love your new channel. i cant wait to see some more. again yu are what car lover should aspire to be. cheers

There is a small Porsche repair shop in the Dallas/Fort Worth area that has the proper parts to modify your A/C to work as it should.I can't remember the name but they fitted new parts of their design to my 930 about 12 years ago and it works in the hottest Texas summers (110 in July and Aug.)! The best mod to this car I've ever made!

Haha love this. Pete Rose had a red one similar in convertible style. As a Valet at La Maisonette in Cinti he would always look for me because he knew I rode a bike (Suzuki 550 ES in '87) and he trusted me. Great Guy. Technically he had it for his wife.

What a blast from the past with the Clarion system. It had a true 160WRMS (2 80W amps). Included the G-80C Controller , G-80D Tape Deck , G-80TVF Tuner and GA-505 Amp Unit. System also included that remote. I had a fully restored Mustang GT during that time with a Kenwood KRC-8001 headunit which was really state of the art at that time. A dual 4" door setup in the factory 4x10 location and some 3 way 6x9s. Just with head unit power the car sound great even windows down.

[@VZ935]

When I was racing my 993 gt2 Evo out of SCarGo Racing a customer had a near identical DP. That car is now in S Florida and I just supplied the owner with 935 hats, rotors, and centerlock hubs. Looks sweet on centerlocks but the body color Fuchs are very nice looking.

[@Tonsofgas]

Yes I saw it- I think it just went up for sale maybe a month ago

[@erikdisomma1759]

He’s wrong about the 930 having the slant and the 911 not. The 930 was a grey market example when proceeded the ‘86 911 turbos. However he was spot on about the clarion rack style equipment. I first saw that setup in a grey market 500 SEL AMG and haven’t seen one since! Great car!

[@Tonsofgas]

Nope a 935 is a slant nose the 930 round.

[@hicadt]

Great Story Mark, I remember this car at Black Forest racing, did John have this car when his shop in Pompano Beach? I lived down in S. Fla in the early 80's and worked for Eastern Airlines, this is the type car you would see at the Mutiny in Coconut Grove back then, nothing screams the Era more than this!, thanks for sharing!

[@Tonsofgas]

Yes that is correct- I don’t like to mention their name bc they are crooks but yes that’s where the car came from

[@gregoryboehm7090]

Paint job screams south Florida Miami Vice. Whoever edited the video did good job, but should be shot for not playing Phil Collins "In The Air Tonight" when he was in the car cruising by himself. That would have set shit off... Owning this when it first dropped you were the cats meow and needed a girlfriend like you needed a hole in the head. You just pulled up to a red light bitchs just dove in through the window. My mind works in weird ways, because when I see this car I think just how much blow was done in there and how many keys got delivered in it? Flippin birds out that thing like you were Tony Montana. I swear Carlos Lehder had one a lot like this in fact it might of been this model because his father was German and he had much affection for his German heritage. Its crazy he got life sentence, but made some type of backroom deal where he got released after 30 years then was deported back to Germany not Columbia. Great video

[@Tonsofgas]

It’s pretty cool

[@downsouth420]

I’m confused. I remember there being tons of 930s with the factory slant nose so I don’t think that’s the defining characteristic of the 935.

[@Tonsofgas]

You are wrong -a 930 is a turbo and a 935 is a slant nose
