The gas smell is coming from the "top hat" in the frunk! The fuel sending unit lives under that cover, and after 20 ish years they start to crack and weep fuel. It's just 4 nuts that hold it on and you should be able to see the fuel puddling in the top of it causing it to smell. Happened on my 02 996 C4S and a new sending unit solved the issue. Btw the Safari idea is AMAZING. DO IT!

Hoovie, you have a reputation to uphold!!! You MUST do the ridiculous things, like a Dakar/Safari conversion. Somebody has to do it, it might as well be you. Plus, once it gets done and you show it around, you can take it to Barrett-Jackson and maybe flip it for something else that's unique (or totally ragged out). Watching the process would make for an interesting series of videos.

Even if you do own a Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc. The only way that makes sense is if you're a KZbinr and a project that people will follow along. Not everyone is going to follow a Porsche Baja build. It comes down to business in the end. That's $17,000 in parts. That's not counting labor on top of his car that roughly cost 30K. That's not a cheap build.

@@kavinskysmith4094 I never said he sold the safari? Where did you get that from? lol I just was responding to Conor. In my original comment I said “I’m sure he still has it… “ maybe you misread ?

I’m assuming you didn’t research “established titles” before you did the sponsorship deal. They are a scam company and the land titles are souvenir titles and you cannot get a lord or Lady title from them. Additionally they don’t plant any trees the claim to donate to 1 tree planted but you actually will not own any land

I think it would look awesome to build the safari 911! I have always loved those types of builds and this one has a lot of potential. Plus once it's done it could probably be sold for a profit

Gotta give it a go. They are cool. I'll be watching. Wish we could leave photos show you what a friend of mine is involved with in Australia. He's with Maxtrax be sure to hit him up to put as set on your build.

Great idea Hoovie. The 996 turbo is a less than wonderful car and yes I did have one, with at 540 HP engine, which made it plain scary. Converting it to a Safari is a wonderful way to kill it off more rapidly and have fun in the process.

You should definitely do the conversion it’s gonna turn out great also I wanted to mention the credibility of established titles it’s not my place to talk about how good they are as a company but there are numerous videos talking about their practices which are potential scams
