Rotiform Porsche 356 Outlaw || Outlaw Garage

What do you think of the wheels?

[@Andrew-vx2ls]

There has been a lot of hard work here. IMHO the wheels are very 1980s italodisco. The good news is that I'm sure a firm somewhere produces a slightly wider replica of the originals allowing 70 section tyres that would be a 5 minute job to change over.

[@OutlawGarage]

@@Andrew-vx2ls You can reband wheels easy enough, we have that on our 356.

[@robertgregory1927]

Didn’t care for the rims either.

[@gregzoller9003]

Not partial to them. Tires are too low-profile and rim design is very busy, and shiny, which isn’t really the tone of this car otherwise. The bumper is an interesting idea tho.

[@OutlawGarage]

@@gregzoller9003 Wheels can be very much a personal choice. Yep I like the bumper option.

love the outlaws and I own a 87 BMW that is built up as an outlaws.. long live "outlaws"...cheers

[@OutlawGarage]

Send us some shots via Instagram @outlawgarage2013 love to see it

[@csmarkham]

You were kind with the comparison between the simple 356 lines and the complexity of the wheel design. The interior trim in the front trunk is brilliant. Wish I had it in mine.

[@OutlawGarage]

I was really surprised and impressed with the front trim, really clean.

Thank you 🙌

[@makeitwild]

Would be great to know more about the vw gearbox modification. I'm just about to the the same on my 356 shell :)

[@OutlawGarage]

Oh I'll try and get some details and post something, the VW gearbox does need a new mount so I'll see if I can get the details

[@grumpy9478]

@@OutlawGarage 4sp or 5sp? rev limit / calculated top speed in gears? tire sizes? weight? very nice craft-work... an outlaw makes sense when the donor is a basket case. (personally, I'd ditch the rear seats - weight - but maybe he has kids). bigger tank (& huge rear tires) may help w/ oversteer. light-touch steering & tossability traded for outright perf. & de luxe touring.

[@OutlawGarage]

@@grumpy9478 4 speed VW type 1 gearbox. rear seat delete would look good.. I'm never too sure about the weight and I get asked a lot about the weight of my 356, I need to find that out.

[@OutlawGarage]

@grumpy Rev limit is around 6k or 6.5K with this engine spec

[@damage98]

What a beauty. Love the red interior. Must be sooo quick w that much hrsprs. The Irish sure have a strong accent. :) ah well CC to the rescue eh?

[@OutlawGarage]

Thanks for watching!

[@jetset8888]

Great build, not sure on the gearbox and engine combo.

[@OutlawGarage]

I think as the car didn't have an engine or gearbox its not a bad option considering the prices of a Porsche 356 gearbox and engine, plus the hp you get. Hard choice when building an Outlaw I think. It's the same issue when we were building our Outlaw with a missing 356 engine.

[@johnrodgers6049]

Wow, awesome! Kinda surprised on the engine choice with all the money spent. The wheels are polarizing. I personally think they are too big for the car. I like some sidewall on tires on vintage cars. Don’t like the shiny chrome or the busy pattern, but I’m not writing the check.

[@OutlawGarage]

Polarising is a good description. What I really like about them is that the owner is doing something different. I'm not 100% sure I would have picked them but I like that it challenges the outlaw and 356 scene. Rolling up to a car show with this would be cool.

[@damage98]

Thats how I feel, but its a custom, so to each their own. Hotrodding is just cool, plain n simple.

[@OutlawGarage]

[@GarageItYourself]

Lovely 356 😊 What's the name of the upholstery place and what suburb is it located in? Looking for someone who can do good work. Ta.

[@OutlawGarage]

I'll find out and get it for you as I've forgotten

[@GarageItYourself]

@@OutlawGarage Thanks

[@1967250s]

Need a light there; hard to see a lot. Looks like the nose is not from a 356? More like an early 911? How does the engine stay cool without the engine tin?

[@OutlawGarage]

Thanks for watching. I think with the bumper drop and tuck along with the indicator change to the earlier model it makes the front end look totally different. I get what you mean though about it looking different. Seems to run really cool but I think after the video they added some tin.

[@jinquan5656]

It’s pho’king Poor SHA pho’ka

[@OutlawGarage]

🤣

[@MrClean-ms4nx]

those wheels are greasy

[@OutlawGarage]

To be honest I'm not sure if thats good or bad

[@273VIPER]

Excellent 👌🏾

Thank you! Cheers!
