Even just seeing one of these in person is incredible, I can’t even begin to comprehend what the driving experience would be like

Great video, but a little bit of click bait going on here. This has nothing to do with the Porsche classic other than looks. It appears to have an ls motor with newer Porsche trans. Not even “Close” to what a real 917 would drive like. It’s a Porsche kit car .

He did put “reborn” in the title so there was a warning. It’s not like the title was “barnfind, time capsule, all original survivor, vintage Le Mans finisher Porsche 917”.

You should change the seat belt mounts behind the seats they're bolted flat not in the direction of pull

Great Video. I just found your channel after buying my dream car after waiting 18 years. Got a 2019 sti and I have been learning more about it and mods to add to it from your channel. Also added the Idoing headunit after watching your video. Great content and hopefully I will see you on the road someday if I pass through Arizona.

Such a cool video, thanks for sharing homie. I saw a purple 917 at Daytona 24hrs this year rolling around the in field with its doors up. So sick

It's very cool, but it's unfortunate that's its a kit car. Had an LS in it.. so is it really that special?

I'm sure there was a lever to move the wall behind the seats back in original as drivers were changed over in le mans 24 There was also away to raise the body of frame and there was a single seat in centre with dials in centre making More room above the drivers head great car great video

Beautiful. No info on whom built the replica, or powertrain, susp, chassis?? Should've just trailered it to closed course track, even if a few hundred miles away and give it a go.
@bobwatkins3519Ай бұрын
Great replica. 917’s always a tight fit for driver. Scary to drive. Need to modify so you can fit. Won’t be comfortable, but they never were. Problem is finding shop that can find that extra 4” you need. It’s doable.

It has big fins on the tail, so it's a 1971(!) Version, not from 1970...😉

And it’s in the 71 lemans winning paint scheme. Not sure when the original would have specifically been made but it could have been 70. One of only two magnesium chassis’.

Dude. It’s got an LS engine in it. One of the most dependable motors in the world. A far cry from an air-cooled flat 12. A great replica but a far cry from what Zuffenhausen produced in its original design.

You'd think with a replica they would've built the car so that the owner could fit in it. 🤔
