Singer Vehicle Design opened a new workshop

In 2009, British musician Rob Dickinson founded the company Singer Vehicle Design which restores and modifies Porsche automobiles. Since then, they have done numerous restorations and modifications of Porsche 964 cars, and now they have opened the doors of their workshop to Top Gear.

Those who want a classic sports car, restored and modified with modern technology, and assembled according to the highest quality standards, unfortunately have to be patient and wait because the waiting list is sometimes four years long.

Since Singer Vehicle Design was founded, demand has grown rapidly to the point where the company has decided to stop accepting new orders for its Classic model. The company decided to do this because it wants to preserve its value in the future. However, the Turbo model is offered, but about 200 people are already waiting for it.

In its plant, Singer performs all operations, from painting and installation of spare and new parts to assembly and finishing works. Singer director Mazen Fawaz claims that the company can meet all customer requirements and increase the car’s value to seven figures except in situations of severe damage.

We’ve already seen some of their work before, and we can say with certainty that they are a piece of art. Here are some of the cars that the company: Porsche 911 Turbo Study, Porsche 930 Turbo, 1989 Porsche 911, Porsche 911 (964), 911 Cabriolet.

964 Classic RSR is a modified Porsche 964

DP Motorsport has extensive experience working with classic Porsche 911 models, and has now introduced the 964 Classic RSR. It is a restored and modified Porsche 964.

Handcrafted body components, made from a lightweight blend of carbon fiber and Kevlar, were used in the construction. New front bumpers, shock absorber mounts, rear side glass, distinctive hood, doors with green Plexiglas, new roof were installed, and KW suspension was installed, which improved the handling and additionally lowered the car. It is finished in Stonegrey with decorative lines in Burgundy red.

The interior is covered with Alcantara, and a roll cage and four-point Schroth belts are installed. In front of the driver, there is a Momo sports steering wheel, a light dashboard, and perforated pedals have been abandoned.

The original engine was replaced, so now the Classic RSR is powered by a 3.8 L flat-six engine with 320 hp (235 kW) and 280 lb-ft (380 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a revised G50 five-speed manual transmission with limited-slip differential. It is mounted on a set of 15-inch Fuchs forged wheels wrapped in 225/50 R 15 (front) and 285/40 R 15 (rear) Michelin. “TB5” tires.

The Singer Porsche 911 story has come to an end

Since 2010, the California-based company, Singer Vehicle Design, has so far offered wealthy customers around the world restored and modified Porsche models. Now after more than a decade the story has come to an end. Singer Vehicle Design has officially announced that it is no longer accepting orders for restomod Porsche 911 (964).

In its 12 years of operation, Singer has successfully realized 450 projects based on the 911 (964) model. Singer CEO Rob Dickinson has stated that Singer Vehicle Design will no longer offer restomod 911s from the 964 Series, despite the fact that there are still many of these cars on the market that would make an excellent basis for Singer’s method of restoration/modification. Dickinson also said that 12 years ago, no one at Singer thought they would end up selling 450 examples of a car that costs around $1 million.

The Porsche 911 restomod is powered by a 4.0-liter flat-six engine with 390 hp (287 kW) and 315 lb-ft (427 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push the car to 62 mph in just over 3 seconds. The engine is paired with a five-speed or six-speed manual transmission.

The company said that they are preparing for a new chapter, the Turbo Study, which was recently announced by the 911 model, whose appearance is clearly reminiscent of the first Porsche 911 Turbo that was presented in 1975.
